Join us this week as we chat to Claudio Sisera from Male Childcare and Teaching Jobs
In the episode, we discuss equality in early years employment and explore the challenges and opportunities for men working in early years and childcare roles.
We also discuss gender inclusivity at work and the possible reasons that we still see such disparity in the numbers of men entering the early years workforce, with Froebel Trust estimating that there are fewer than 2% of the early years workforce who identify as male, and that that number is currently in decline.
What can we do about it? Claudio has some ideas, and talks us through how Male Childcare and Teaching Jobs are working to make meaningful change. Come in and join us as we explore the possible solutions and try to better understand how we can help.
We'll be back with a whole new episode on Wednesday 26 June.
