Staff Wellbeing 

"Teaching is a tough job. It can be immensely rewarding but also physically and emotionally draining. Safeguarding and mental health issues can be intense and complex. Children's behavioural and emotional problems are increasing. May schools recognise this and provide support for their staff.  The new focus on children's mental health, though, serves as an important reminder to us that we must couple support for school staff with the ambitions we have for children's wellbeing.  If we don't we will be letting down all school and college staff. If we want school and college staff to do what's asked of the, then we need to make sure that their mental health and wellbeing is effectively supported."

Professor Peter Fonagy, CEO of the Anna Freud

When staff feel valued and supported, schools thrive. Prioritizing staff wellbeing reduces stress, boosts job satisfaction, and strengthens retention, fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation. Healthy, happy educators build strong connections with students and colleagues, creating vibrant, inclusive learning environments. By investing in staff wellbeing, schools lay the foundation for a thriving community where both educators and students flourish together.
