Managing behaviour that challenges you and retaining your own and other staff’s wellbeing?
This month I was interviewed on The Pursuit of Wellbeing Podcast, the podcast dedicated to the wellbeing of teachers, school leaders, and staff with Maria Bronsan @MariaBrosnan.
In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore –
- How teacher wellbeing is affected by poor pupil behaviour.
- What teachers can do for themselves, especially in setting and holding healthy boundaries.
- How to create the infrastructure and support for teachers around behaviour.
- Dealing with challenging behaviour and wellbeing post-lockdown.
- Allowing more time and space in the classroom to help pupils dealing with trauma to feel safe.
- How and when to manage your own self-care. (Hint: It’s not going to change unless you change something.)
- Knowing your own triggers (so your students don’t trigger them.)
- Adele’s ‘magic bullet’ in managing behaviour using a free, easy tool.
And much more!
