Wellbeing in the Workplace

A recent study by Monash University found;

 

• existing educator wellbeing initiatives place too much focus on self-care and individual strategies
• leaders play an important role in creating a thriving workplace
• a whole-of-setting approach to educator wellbeing is needed
• there is a growing body of evidence that links educator wellbeing with educational outcomes for children and young people.

 

It can take courage and vulnerability to talk about areas for growth in your workplace. In this session participants will unpack seven principles that can guide learning communities towards building a thriving workplace.

 

Using the Be You tool; Beyond Self Care, An educator wellbeing guide, participants will have an opportunity to consider strengths and opportunities in their workplace. This guide is designed to help leaders and educator teams:

 

• think about all the factors that contribute to educator wellbeing
• rethink the roles individual educators play within a whole-of-setting approach
• consider practical steps learning communities can take towards building a thriving workplace.
