@AlexGAThomas @instituteforgov analyses our #CivilServiceProgression report ⬇️

Our interviews with over 100 civil servants found those from working class backgrounds frequently feel misread as aggressive, loud or too passionate.
Our recommendations to improve #CivilServiceProgression for people from disadvantaged backgrounds ➡️ https://t.co/nrnrEhvSs9

The key behavioural code at the top-grades of the Civil Service revolves around mastery of ‘studied neutrality’.
Those from disadvantaged backgrounds told us are often intimidated and alienated by these unwritten rules.

Operational roles within the Civil Service, which have clear progression bottlenecks, are more likely to chosen by people from low socio-economic backgrounds as policy roles are seen as dependent on mastering behavioural codes.

People from low socio-economic backgrounds generally express confusion and uncertainty, as well as a sense of ethical or moral discomfort, on getting a promotion in the Civil Service.

Certain roles accelerate #CivilServiceProgression - such as working in private office, in central departments, running a bill team, securing a leading role during a national crisis, or as a Minister’s private secretary.

Working class female civil servants are more likely than men to believe their background will hamper their progress, and are more under-represented at senior grades.

How do civil servants class themselves?
1 in 4 civil servants who self-assess as coming from a low socio-economic background actually had advantaged upbringings. The proportion of those misaligning increases at higher grades.

There are far more top-grade civil servant posts located in London than elsewhere – meaning #CivilServiceProgression is harder in the regions.
We recommend mandatory reporting of socio-economic data within all departments, including by location ➡️ https://t.co/nrnrEhvSs9

Our research found civil servants in London are less diverse than the rest of the UK.
To improve #CivilServiceProgression we recommend Parliament being permanently virtual to enable MPs and ministers, with civil service hubs, to be based outside London➡️ https://t.co/h6XuzAqaXM

A disproportionate number of senior civil servants went to independent schools.
But progress has been made since 1967, suggesting private school education is not such a prerequisite for success.

We have drawn up a comprehensive action plan to improve #CivilServiceProgression. We hope this will be adopted by the Civil Service and employers throughout the country.

Civil servants who get promoted are more likely to have policy roles, work in departments near the political centre of power like the Treasury, and live in London.

What is so dispiriting about this is that we appear to be going backwards in #CivilServiceProgression . Amazing that is possible in the @UKCivilService 🇬🇧 in 2021. Now, more than ever, we need to be deploying our smartest, not just our most privileged, minds 🙋🏻👨🏾💻👩🏼💼

This report ⤵️ outlines how regional accents impinge on the idea of studied neutrality and the way of ‘being’ in the Civil Service workplace. I have experienced this in many ways; it hits the nail on the head for why I often feel like I do not fit in #CivilServiceProgression

Civil servants from disadvantaged backgrounds are significantly under-represented in the organisation, and even if they ‘get in’ they struggle to ‘get on’.

15 departments made the Top 75 of our Social Mobility Employer Index last year – as referenced by @cabinetofficeuk in this piece. To fix the problems outlined in the report, it's time for all other departments to follow suit. #CivilServiceProgression (2/3)

The Civil Service’s socio-economic record is worse than the rest of the UK workforce.
We are calling for government to have greater scrutiny of senior leaders and five-year targets to increase representation of the working class.
