Be kind to yourself and to each other this week; I suspect it’s going to be a tough one.

@JessParkerEDC @AmySayerAS @tes @GroupWellbeing I’ve only just seen this! Thank you so much!

[Terri Ann Slatter @SlatRS_Classics]

Does anyone have a solid Staff Mental Health and/or Wellbeing policy they’d be happy to share? Looking for best practice & good examples before we begin drafting ours! Please RT #teacherwellbeing #educhat #edutwitter #teachermentalhealth #ukedchat @AmySayerAS @tes @GroupWellbeing

Great paper showing that allowing for thinking time & paired discussion before whole-class questioning (think-pair-share), increases voluntary contributions and reduces pupil anxiety. So important currently!

[YoungMinds @YoungMindsUK]

A society where every young person struggling with their mental health has a place to turn and always feels comfortable talking about it. That’s worth fighting for.

How do we build a reading culture n schools? Primary and secondary. #Arkreads inset day @ArkBDA kicking off with keynote speech from @DavidDidau! I’m really looking forward to the practical work we’ll be doing on this later on #arkschools #reading #readingtraining #arkinset

A focus on students' mental health and wellbeing should be at the core of a school's curriculum.

@maosbot Thank you for sharing! I have fibromyalgia. A colleague/friend has long covid & we are putting provision in place to support her in school teaching. Insane how much overlap we discovered there also is with our symptoms e.g. pain, fatigue, brain fog. Little known about fibro too.

@MissJTappenden Good luck!!

[Terri Ann Slatter @SlatRS_Classics]

I’m feeling the pain, brain fog and fatigue at the of the half-term. My fibromyalgia flares up at the end of term/high stress periods. Any other teachers/leaders out there managing a chronic health condition? Please say hi! 👋🏼#educhat #fibro #chronicillness #teacherhealth #flare

[Terri Ann Slatter @SlatRS_Classics]

@thateyetie I left teaching for a bit but stayed working within education, which I really enjoyed! Much better work/life balance but still familiar territory. I did look at other roles with children or education/learning development related. Charity & Guardian job sites are good! Good luck

@Truthfairy74 Definitely not beaten & doing an MA also but I do set boundaries around work,even housework! Break tasks down:don’t beat myself up when stuff doesn’t get done. I also try & be more in the present with my little one! I now get up pre 6am to do yoga & meditate and its helped! x

To mark #worldmentalhealthday2021 ‘Mental Health in an Unequal World’ I am giving away a copy of each of my two books . All you have to do is RT and try and spread the word far and wide so we can get support to where it matters. #Mentalhealth #schools The draw is on 10.10.21.

Wellbeing isn’t a staff meeting topic or another initiative to push. Wellbeing is a living, breathing culture built relationships and communication.

[Terri Ann Slatter @SlatRS_Classics]

@Mr_Bilsborrow @MrTs_NQTs Eek that doesn’t sound pleasant! Have you tried naproxen? Although that can test the tummy so may not be any good! x
