This exciting and inspiring text offers easy-to-implement strategies and tools to improve teacher well-being in schools. Teacher well-being is of paramount importance in the profession and has never been as necessary as it is today, even being included at the heart of the current Ofsted framework. Drawing together theory, popular culture and real-life stories from teachers, each chapter focuses on one of ten inspirational and iconic individuals from diverse backgrounds as archetypes to explore key strands of well-being including healthy habits, resourcefulness, resilience, managing pressure, workload, time management and positivity.

Emphasising the importance of well-being and aspiration for teachers at all stages of their career, the chapters feature:

  • a constructed definition of each icon and how their achievements translate into the teaching profession
  • a case study exploring how a teacher has overcome well-being challenges in their career and how this shaped them as a professional
  • key lessons and takeaway actions.

Including a foreword by Hannah Wilson, Co-founder and Director of Diverse Educators, Well-being Wins for Teachers translates the abstract notion of well-being into tangible and practical strategies for all teachers.

Industry Reviews

"In a recruitment and retention crisis, where teachers are struggling under the weight of expectations, well-being has never been more vital. But well-being can sometimes seem like an abstract concept and this honest book cuts through the fluff, offering real tangible tips, discussion points and case studies which will really make a difference. Not only is it realistic and pragmatic, it is also hilarious. Its links to pop culture make a sensitive, important topic come to life. It'll make a real difference to school staff and in turn, the children they serve."

- Haili Hughes, Director of Education at IRIS Connect, Mentoring Lead at the University of Sunderland

"Finally a book that looks at well-being beyond education and a book that looks at mental health and well-being through an intersectional lens"

- Hannah Wilson, Co-founder and Director of 'Diverse Educators'
