Teacher Retention research

Bradford Council is undertaking a piece of research to better understand the patterns and characteristics of teachers leaving employment in all Bradford schools and would appreciate if all schools, including academies and free schools, provided this information via BSO,  if they have not done so already.   We would appreciate if schools would provide information on any teaching staff who have left during the academic year so far, i.e. since September 2016.  If you have told us already about teachers who left in the autumn and spring terms, you do not need to do so again but please do tell us about any staff who have left during this summer term.

Please ensure that this information is returned by the 29 September 2017.  If no teachers have left your school this academic year, please submit a nil return.

Thank you very much for your assistance.  Follow the steps below indicated to provide the information.  If you require any assistance with this please contact us using the the email address below.

Step 1: Go to the Home Page following logging into BSO and navigate to Retention Data

Step 2: Go to Retention Data.  If you have no leavers from the 2016/17 autumn term, i.e. Nil Return, click the RED button. If you did have teachers leave during the year please go to 'Add New' and provide the requested details.
