Is Wellbeing Weaponised in Toxic Schools? : Points of View
About this episode
Teacher wellbeing is at its lowest since 2019. Education Support’s Teacher Wellbeing Index reports that 76% of teachers report high levels of stress, while 36% are at risk of clinical depression. Nearly half of those surveyed said that their school’s culture negatively impacts their mental health. Has wellbeing become a series of token gestures? Why do schools struggle to take meaningful steps to improve staff wellbeing? Is it a fundamental misunderstanding of what is needed to combat low staff morale? Is the problem much bigger than individual institutions? Or is it a toxic culture created by poor leadership?
