Brightwood for Schools - individual and group work

I understand the challenges of Education in the UK and I want to give something back to our community. Being a teacher is hard work. Being a leader or an Early Career Teacher is challenging. I know because I've been there. I was a Primary Teacher and Middle Leader for 8 years and taught Psychology at Sixth Form.

 

I love working with teachers and school staff because I know what a huge difference your wellbeing makes to the children and young people you inspire, challenge and support each day.  I also know that feeling good about yourself and your work means you can choose to remain in your school for longer in a healthier, happier and more sustainable, way that benefits you, and everyone around you.

 

Mental health is the biggest factor impacting ECTs and experienced staff members and makes retention and recruitment one of the biggest  - and most expensive - issues for leaders across the UK.​

 

My offer to schools

​

​I offer individual reduced rates for school staff for one-to-one therapy and/or coaching sessions. Just make sure you let me know that you work in a school when you get in touch and we can take it from there​

 

I also offer tailored in-school group sessions for ECTs, experienced teachers, school staff and Leaders to address issues affecting you and your school in a safe supportive, facilitated environment. You can choose from more or less structured spaces which I will tailor to your school and deliver with a deep knowledge of how the education sector works and the issues you face each and every day - that includes making sure my scheduling and logistics work for your timetables as well as delivering  value for the precious time and money invested in your team's wellbeing.​​

 

You may want me to address and work with:

stress,

working relationships (including with school families),

time management,

anxiety,

neurodiversity management

goal-setting,

eco-anxiety in children and adults,

working with children and young people's mental health,

managing low mood,

mindfulness practices that work in the real world

 

or anything else that comes up for you and your teams. ​​

 

Contact me today to discuss how a one-off or a series of group sessions can have a huge impact on your whole school wellbeing.​​
