Bringing awareness of mental health, trauma-informed practice, etc. is so important, but does it translate into our practice? What do we need to do differently to see the shift from awareness to application? #StaffWellbeing is not just for #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

#EduTwitter As we are planning ahead for next year and are updating strategic plans, SIPs etc, are some school leaders using a Theory of Change model to map out the journey of proposed change in your school? Any success stories on that? #SLT @SLTchat #StrategicPlanning #TOC

So important to remember. We don't need to consume ourselves completely to be effective,impactful, successful. It's about time we put a stop to the culture of martyrdom that exists in education. You are allowed to be a teacher AND have a life during term time.

When you think of wellbeing, does financial wellbeing spring to mind? A clear understanding of contextual wellbeing is needed now more than ever! We can't expect our young people to be well when they are thrown into this current climate without financial literacy skills!

I'd love to hear experiences and examples from #edutwitter on parental engagement. How have you managed to involve parents, get them 'on board', build trust between school and home? Mr_AHT_Pastoral @Mellow_Pascoe @PastoralThings @PastoralFella The Pastoral Network Pastoral Leaders

Self-awareness is perhaps one of the biggest challenges when spinning multiple plates, attending to numerous needs of pupils, staff, parents all under the pressure of lack of time & resources. But when in under stress, becoming self-aware is πŸ”‘ so we can regulate/avoid burnout.
