MFL teacher, wife and mum of two. Proud to be Cornish, but living on the wrong side of the bridge! All opinions my own.

When students are anxious/depressed, one method of remediation might be TEACHING THEM TO DO SCHOOL BETTER. Just got this message from a mental health professional.

Teacher retention isn’t complicated:
If you want to keep the best teachers, treat them like they are the best.

Thank you Mama Erasmus ♥️
