In this episode, we discuss your pregnancy and maternity rights, including privacy and dignity at work, breastfeeding, pregnancy loss, maternity pay and leave.

We want to see more measures to support and accommodate pregnant women and new mothers working in the education sector. We aim for all schools and colleges to have policies, systems and support in place to back pregnant teachers and support staff and new parents at work.  

Thanks to everyone who spoke to us for this episode.

If you would prefer to not listen to the section on pregnancy loss, please skip ahead to 31.25.
