The mental health of teachers and school staff

This webinar will explore how the mental health of teachers and school staff have been impacted by pandemic school closures, subsequent re-openings, and the pressures of delivering education in unprecedented circumstances. During the programme delegates will have the opportunity to engage in debate about the impact of the school closures during the UK lockdown period.

During this webinar delegates will:

• Understand how the teaching community has coped with the challenges and changes of the past year.
• Gain a greater awareness of the risks and early signs of school staff burnout and how this can be recognised and avoided.
• Recognise the importance of the mental health of staff in promoting mental health in the whole school.

Join us to hear from educational professionals about how school communities have adjusted their working environments and how staff have supported each other in these unprecedented circumstances.

This episode is part of the psychiatry series: Transforming mental health in schools and colleges. Participants will be able to take the concepts and ideas explored during this series and adapt them for use in the classroom and clinical practice. This webinar has CPD accreditation.

A CPD certificate with CPD credit will be issued to those joining the webinar live as well as those who watch the recording afterward. Certificates will be issued 7 days after the webinar to those who watch it live and after 30 days for those that watch the recording.
