Principal and teacher wellbeing
When educators have a strong sense of wellbeing they are more able to support the health and wellbeing of their colleagues and their students, and to deliver the best possible learning outcomes for all.
Schools are complex and often challenging environments with a variety of stressors impacting the health and wellbeing of educators as they respond to the needs of their students and their families. It’s vitally important to explore practical strategies that educators can implement to reduce stress and help build healthy, supportive learning communities where everyone can thrive.
