Yes, of course the pupils are important – and should be at the heart of all we do.  However, we believe it is the staff that are the most important people within a school.  Using the ‘oxygen mask’ principle, if we don’t put our own oxygen masks on first, then we can’t help anyone else.  Schools are the same – how can we expect teachers to inspire, motivate and guide our young people if they don’t feel cared for, respected and valued themselves?  Emotions are contagious and a happy, fulfilled workforce creates ripples of positivity which spread throughout the school and beyond.

​

We believe that by targeting both ends of this continuum – staff wellbeing at one end and pupil behaviour at the other, schools have the opportunity to create a balanced, sustainable culture promoting positivity and outstanding learning behaviour.
