Summary "Recent years have seen a mental health crisis take hold within school environments. Teaching staff facing demanding workloads, limited resources and constant budget cuts are increasingly stretched beyond their contracted hours, and mental wellbeing and self-care slip through the cracks as a result. The need for cultural shift has become yet more apparent in recent years, in which the number of teachers relying on counselling services has surged and over half have reported considering leaving the profession. Drawing on case studies from years of experience working within schools and supporting staff mental health, Amy Sayer introduces the main issues affecting teaching staff and the strategies that can be implemented to change the conversation and ensure that mental wellbeing is placed at the forefront. This is an accessible, easy-to-read guide to setting up a culture in which staff may talk openly about the issues affecting them, prioritise self-care and re-discover their love of teaching"-- Provided by publisher
