An Daras as an Employer
We are united in our view that improved well-being among staff is a key outcome for education policy. Our staff are a precious resource: valuing them, and their well-being and mental health, is a duty we all share.
Not only is this a good thing itself, it is critical in recruiting and retaining high quality education staff now and in the future. It is also crucial in securing better outcomes for young people, including regarding their own well-being and mental health.
We want to see a sector that is free from mental health discrimination, guided by emotional intelligence, and characterised by supportive, nurturing cultures. A sector where the conditions are such that every member of staff can thrive.
We recognise that everyone has a role to play in creating and sustaining those conditions, including government, leaders, employers and staff themselves.
As an employer, staff choose to stay with us. Our retention levels are excellent. This is because we support our staff to develop and grow. We offer many opportunities for high quality CPD and for career progressions.
