2. Taking action to address pay gaps and support employees

ESTEEM MULTI-ACADEMY TRUST said:

The gender pay gap at Esteem Multi-Academy Trust can be partly related to the higher take up of positions in our schools by female staff who seek part-time or flexible working, such as support staff roles. These are at lower salary points and are term time only, aligning to childcare responsibilities and/or personal circumstances of many. The workforce of Esteem Multi-Academy Trust is made up of predominantly support staff positions, along with teaching and central team functions. Salaries are paid in accordance with the nationally agreed terms and conditions of service for both teaching and support staff. This ensures that men and women, who undertake the same job, or similar jobs of equal value, are paid equally. This has improved on the previous year and Esteem Multi-Academy Trust continues to be committed to addressing the gender pay gap to ensure that it continues to reduced or is eliminated. At Esteem Multi-Academy Trust, we continue to promote progression into senior or leadership roles for female colleagues as well as progressing with the actions from our action plan to address this and support for menopause/ any time throughout a female or any staffs career with us.

Action plan

What is an action plan?

Employers with 250 or more employees can submit a voluntary action plan outlining how they intend to address their gender pay gap and support employees experiencing menopause. These are due to be mandatory from April 2027.

To create their action plan, employers review a list of evidence-informed actions recommended by the government. They identify any they already routinely do (‘embedded actions’), and choose some new actions to focus on (‘planned actions’). They must choose at least 2 planned actions.

You can see the full list of actions (opens in a new window) and guidance for employers on creating an action plan (opens in a new window).

For more detail on the process, see the gender pay gap and action plan guidance (opens in a new window).

ESTEEM MULTI-ACADEMY TRUST has committed to embedding these actions:

  • Reduce unconscious bias in CV screening
  • Offer mentoring, sponsorship and other development programmes
  • Enhance and promote flexible working and leave policies
  • Review policies and procedures to meet the needs of employees experiencing menopause
  • Offer workplace adjustments to employees experiencing menopause
  • Set up menopause support groups and networks
