June 2023

With the end of the academic year fast approaching, the final half term can often be the part of the year when we, as educators, need to dig deepest into our own toolkit of strengths. Being adaptable and optimistic can be hard when energy levels are low, so making sure to take time to practise self-care this half term is really important.

If you can, just taking 60 intentional seconds a day is a proven way to boost energy levels and focus. One way of doing this is by celebrating your wins. Whether small or more significant, give yourself a pat on the back and acknowledge your successes: this year, this term or even in the lesson you just taught.

Remember you are doing an AMAZING job.

If you’d like an extra bit of support at this time of transition, register to receive our free, pre-recorded webinar ‘How Teaching About Character Can Help Pupils with Transition’ developed in partnership with HeadteacherChat. You’ll be the first to receive the webinar when it is released in the coming days.
