Description
Healthy staff and teachers are our most valuable resource for creating safe and supportive learning environments. The Way to Well-being workshop series explores why resiliency is a challenging and necessary skill for educators. Participants will be introduced to an integrated set of online tools which are no-cost, evidence-informed, and designed to build safe and supportive school climates with emphasis on the needs of staff. We will use these tools as a guide to explore resources and tips to strengthen staff well-being at the individual, collective and policy level.
