FACTORS THAT HELP TEACHERS FEEL THEY BELONG

MONASH University research highlights 41 factors that foster ‘teacher belonging’ to address Australia’s teacher retention crisis, with half of new teachers leaving within five years. Key drivers include supportive relationships, respectful leadership, social connection, validation of challenges like imposter syndrome, and opportunities to contribute ideas. Academic factors like clear roles and induction also help. Strengthening teacher belonging not only retains early career teachers but also improves student engagement and outcomes by creating a positive and supportive learning environment.
