Effective Self-care

This course explores self-care and how to identify what works for you. It guides you through the process of how to look after your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing and encourages you to put in place small changes that can make a big difference to your lifestyle.

Headteachers and their staff teams are under increasing pressure to perform at a higher academic level with fewer resources. As the academic pressure increases, there is less time in schools for creativity, social interaction and reflection. With increasing numbers of experienced teachers leaving the profession or leaving to work abroad, it is evident that stress and anxiety levels within staff teams are rising.
