Teacher Wellbeing

There is no doubt that in schools where there are high levels of harmony and a positive outlook, staff usually experience greater job satisfaction; improved sense of belonging; stronger loyalty; greater commitment; less absenteeism; and higher levels of job performance.

The talk in your head impacts your wellbeing.
Gandhi said,
‘I will not let anyone walk through my mind with his dirty feet.’
Sometimes we are the ones with the dirty feet in our own minds!
Have you ever had Imposter Syndrome?
Have you ever taught something important to your students and then thought ‘Hey, who am I to sprout about all of this? or ‘Hey, I don’t do that!’

It’s your first teaching gig! How ridiculously wonderful and absolutely terrifying at the same time!
At last you get to put into practice all that you have learnt for your very own students.

Becoming a great teacher doesn’t happen overnight. It is the combination of experience, passion and self-reflection that makes a successful teacher.
