It is vitally important that schools support their staff to feel equipped and able to maintain good levels of mental health and wellbeing in a post-COVID-19 world.

This FREE full-day workshop, for both primary and secondary schools, will provide you and your school with a comprehensive understanding on how to improve staff mental health and wellbeing in the context of an individual approach, and a Whole-School Approach.

This workshop is designed to give you the knowledge, skills and confidence in your ability to recognise, support and signpost those colleagues that are having difficulties with their mental health and wellbeing.

Workshop topics include:

  • Understanding mild to moderate mental illness (including stress, anxiety and depression)
  • Understanding the stigma of mental illness and how to challenge stigma
  • How to spot the signs and symptoms of typical mild to moderate illness
  • The relationship between mental health and physical health
  • National guidance and policy in place to support the mental health and wellbeing of the education workforce
  • How to adopt a Whole-School Approach
  • Exploring the BITC / PHE Sleep Toolkit
  • An introduction to the 5 Ways to Wellbeing
  • How to effectively communicate about mental health needs and support
  • Understanding local and national support services
  • 10-15 minutes of time dedicated to Q&A. Questions may be submitted prior to the 'workshop' for the provider to answer in the session

PLEASE NOTE: This FREE full-day workshop is accompanied by a 1-hour Network Session (on Thursday 11th February at 15:30 - 16:30 via Zoom). The network session will provide a scheme of ongoing facilitated peer-support around Staff Mental Health and Wellbeing and specifically around the Workshop. The sessions will give you the chance to reflect on learning and share tips with others how you have embedded the learning in wider school practice.
