A collection of useful education support tips to help teachers and other education staff to look after each other and improve their own wellbeing in the workplace has been created in partnership with the Education Support Charity and added to Health Education England elearning for healthcare (HEE elfh)’s MindEd programme.
The tips offer guidance and advice on the following topics:
- Looking after yourself and each other in education settings
- Acknowledging loss and bereavement in education settings
- Dealing with stress and trauma for staff in education settings
- Tips for team leaders and managers in education settings
Each set of tips has been written by a panel of health and education settings based experts, adapted for the education workforce.
Dr Raphael Kelvin, MindEd Consortium National Clinical Lead said: “Education staff have such a pivotal role in our society. Just as we plant trees now to provide shade for the next generation, we grow our children to be our shared futures. The wellbeing of our teachers, educators and all education staff is central to our children’s educational and social experience and key to their shared successes. We hope these resources will nourish this key endeavour for us all.”
