Wellbeing tips and hints from Mr Whild.
Prior to taking a career break, I spent 5 years as a secondary school and SEN teacher in Stoke-on-Trent and a further 5 years as an education welfare officer working with teachers in North Staffordshire to assist pupils who were struggling to access education. As a placement during my Post-Graduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy I provided therapeutic play sessions within a school in South Manchester. Whilst there I saw the commitment and dedication of a hard-working staff putting the best interests of their pupils ahead of their own wellbeing.

You know just as I do, that running a school can be incredibly challenging in the current climate, so you know that you are not alone with these challenges...

The Positive Teacher Network is an online training platform and community for teachers and support staff who are looking to improve their well-being and build resilience to the stress and difficulties that come with the job.
We are focused on providing evidence based strategies and resources that can put you back in control of your own well-being.
There is new free content every week and we also run an exclusive Members Club for proactive teachers who want to learn and develop on a personal level to manage stress, improve their work-life balance and continue to grow in their careers as teachers without sacrificing life outside of it.
We understand the world of teaching and the pressures that teachers face on a daily basis. Often teachers are consumed by their work, tired, de-motivated, stressed and very negative.
Coaching for Teachers has been created by teachers to help teachers better manage their work/life balance so they can have the best of both worlds. With our inside knowledge, we provide a unique blend of Management Coaching with Life Coaching because we know that teachers don’t stop when the children go home! We help teachers to be driven, focused, time effective (at work and home), energized and promotion ready.
With Powell Coaching for Teachers you can do the job you love and live the life you desire.
