Excellent teachers are at the heart of what we do at University of Derby and we know research and evidence is crucial to future proofing our profession! So it's wonderful to hear Professor Frances Maratos talking about the wellbeing of our teachers and learners of the future! Compassion is key!

Introducing compassion CPD's and curricula within Education is something I feel very strongly about to help all flourish. See: schoolsweek.co.uk/can-compassion… University of Derby Psychology at Derby Teacher Education Research and Innovation Cluster CMF Global Compassion Coalition

Always love a good gathering of IoE colleagues! Great to celebrate a range of successes across the Institute including research outcomes and programme developments. Thank you to all the guest speakers -Claire Morley, Anna Lisles and Professor Frances Maratos your input will have impact!

Sadly, I see this happen to many of my female colleagues. I now call-out inappropriate behaviours and comments. Why incredulity is an issue for so many women in senior positions (myself included) is likely a complex issue. msn.com/en-in/health/o… Global Compassion Coalition

I was recently sent a post by Matthew Martin stating “Teach Like a Champion” is not fit for purpose. I wonder how many of you realise that “Zones of Regulation” is NOT an evidenced-based practice. This 2024 review is pretty scathing: doi.org/10.1177/002246… #EdChat #ChildDevelop

The move to create parity of esteem between mental and physical health and to reform the Mental Health Act announced in today's #KingsSpeech are hugely welcome. Dr Roman Raczka, BPS President-Elect responds to the Kings Speech in full bps.org.uk/news/bps-respo…

When you try to be considerate because the travel agent your employer uses seems to be very expensive. I’m not sure this is conducive for working this afternoon, before changing for a state opening drinks reception at Parliament Square 🤣. Swing a 🐈‍⬛!

Compassion can do incredible things, from reducing anxiety to improving emotional regulation – and schools can nurture it, says researcher Professor Frances Maratos tes.com/magazine/teach…

In this TES piece I explain what compassion is and why we need it now, more than ever, in the education sector with pupils/students and teachers/educators. An easy read & share: tes.com/magazine/teach… Global Compassion Coalition Prof Kath Mitchell CBE Psychology at Derby CMF DerbyUniPress

Amazing work Professor Frances Maratos. This could really make a big difference to many lives (staff, pupils and their families). It’s time we took steps towards making schools kinder environments for the benefit of everyone. #MentalHealthMatters Define Fine - Parent Peer Support 💜
