Stop talking about wellbeing

£16.00

As statistical figures of teachers leaving the profession reaches an alarming level, and teachers’ mental health becomes a fundamental concern, wellbeing has been pushed to the top of the national agenda in a bid for schools to consider how to look after their staff. However, wellbeing has become a tokenistic feature within the education sector, as staff participate in compulsory wellbeing-linked activities that have very little impact on their workload or their ability to do what they came into the profession to do: teach young people. With this book, Kat Howard aims to flip the narrative on wellbeing completely. In a critical consideration of research both in and outside of education, Kat explores the key factors of a teacher’s role within school, outlining a series of tools that teachers can use to take ownership of their workload, and achieve wellbeing through purposeful job fulfilment.
