Teacher or Kindergarten Keyworker Maternity Leave: Letter to Parents and Students

Ready templates for parent chats, introducing your replacement, comforting young children, and saying thank you for farewell gifts.

Published:

When a teacher or nursery keyworker leaves on maternity leave midway through the school year, parents naturally worry about their children adapting to a new teacher. A thoughtful, reassuring farewell note sets minds at ease and protects your emotional peace.

The four essential parts of your announcement:

  • Clear timeline: The exact date you begin leave.
  • Reassuring handover: Introducing the new teacher or administrator.
  • Gratitude to parents: For trust, responsive teamwork, and mutual respect.
  • Loving words to students: Reminding children how proud you are of their progress.
Universal message to parents: “Dear parents! With warmth and gratitude, I share that starting October 15, I am going on maternity leave. It has been a true joy teaching your children. Our group will be led by Anna Ivanova, an experienced and caring educator. Thank you for your constant support throughout the year. I will deeply miss the kids!”
