Teachers’ Guide - Building Resilience

The Teachers’ Guide shares the techniques and approaches to resilience of a number of Hampshire Teachers as well as wider professionals. School leaders are encouraged to share the guide with their teaching staff, encouraging use of the document to prompt their own thinking. The document can be used to support discussions regarding wellbeing and resilience whether formally through line management and staff meetings (for example focusing on particular sections) or more informally as needs arise to explore strategies for individual staff.
