According to Education Support, 43% of teachers say they have experienced all components associated with burnout! I'm very aware that this is a much bigger systemic issue, but what can we do as individual people in our individual schools to start making change? #StaffWellbeing

It's SATS week. A week where staff and students are under enormous pressure. Do we really need these high stakes exams? What are the benefits? As Einstein apparently said, 'If you judge a fish by it's ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing it is stupid'.

@beyondbehaviour I would have hated it if I had continued with the same teacher who seemed to take great pleasure in humiliating us. I quite enjoyed maths in my younger years but when teachers changed, I hated it and believed I couldn't do it.

Domestic abuse affects far more people than most of us realise. Many have second phones as a safety line.
The consequences for those phones being discovered could be dire so please share this message.

How do you support someone who is struggling?
Learning to empathise with others is what allows others to feel seen, valued, heard and supported - that's the difference that makes the difference. #Empathy #StaffWellbeing #Education

How often do you take a step back to notice what's going on around you? We can get so wrapped up in being busy that we lose sight of the bigger picture. Sometimes taking a moment to pause can have a profound effect on out mood, thinking, creativity and problem solving. #Pause

What has been (or is) the most helpful thing you do as an Educator to keep your resilience reserves topped up?

It's been a hell of a week. So this is a reminder to myself and anyone else who is finding things overwhelming right now. At school, I was part of a group that helped younger children with reading. It was called 'Toe by Toe'. I loved that. If a step feels too much - toe by toe🤗

Today I am celebrating all the incredible women in my life. May we know them, may we be them, may we raise them. #IWD #EmbraceEquity

@Thinkingschool2 So true! I don't remember all of my teachers but I absolutely remember the one who supported me the most and the one who put me down the most.

"Building staff wellbeing into the foundations of your school culture has an incredible impact that goes beyond ensuring good mental health." In @GESSeducation our CEO, Mark Solomons, examines the impact of #wellbeing on staff recruitment and retention. https://t.co/fBG0eGPRBW

I believe Mental Health and Wellbeing should be at the very core of #Education. It's such a pleasure to be sharing knowledge and resources with organisations who share the same beliefs and values. Receiving feedback like this makes it even more worthwhile :)

Did you know that viewing natural light in the morning and afternoon is one of the most effective ways to boost mood, energy and focus?☀️It also helps improve our circadian rhythms and sleep!😴Aim for 10-15 minutes each morning and afternoon.
