Live Well, Teach Well: A practical approach to wellbeing that works [9781472949790]
Stressed? Overworked? Drowning in marking? This book has it covered. In order to secure the best possible outcomes for your pupils, you must look after your own wellbeing, and Live Well, Teach Well is jam-packed with 90 practical ideas and strategies to help you do just that. #Teacher5aday advocate Abigail Mann provides advice, activities and techniques that any primary or secondary teacher can use to support their own mindfulness, wellbeing, and physical and mental health, and that of their colleagues too. The ideas will help you to stay energised, focused and positive throughout the school year, and to work more efficiently and effectively, so you can maintain a healthy work-life balance. There are also tips on building constructive, fulfilling relationships with the community you are serving, on supporting pupil wellbeing (because a happy class means a happy teacher!) and on making wellbeing a focus at a whole-school level. AUTHOR: Abigail Mann has been teaching for six years in a variety of schools and levels, including Key Stage 3, 4 and 5. She has been a wellbeing advocate since she began teaching but more recently has taken an active role in improving the wellbeing of teachers across the country by promoting ideas to support staff and schools. As an advocate of the #teacher5aday initiative, she has seen improvements in her own wellbeing as well as the wellbeing of teachers who feel supported by the concept. She holds a genuine belief that the most successful schools are those in which staff and students' wellbeing is regarded as vital to their success. Follow her on Twitter @abbiemann1982.
