Disruptive Women: A WomenEd Guide to Equitable Action in Education

About this book

Disruptive Women is your guide to changing the status quo in the education system.

Drawing from rich, varied perspectives from across the global WomenEd community it offers guidance, solidarity and real-life examples of how to make change happen in four vital areas:
  • Increasing the representation of women in educational leadership
  • Breaking down barriers that exclude diverse women from leadership roles
  • Disrupting the gender pay gap for women leaders
  • Championing flexible working for more equitable working cultures
This is unmissable reading for anyone working in schools, universities and other educational organisations who recognises the need to disrupt, innovate and to change education to be more inclusive, equitable and diverse.
