This unit aims to open constructive and honest dialogue about stress and the best ways to manage it.

It is a wonderful opportunity for the senior leadership team (SLT) to demonstrate how much they value their staff and together build strong supportive structures which will encourage outstanding performance in the classroom.

Stress is often perceived as bad. However, this unit serves to highlight how important stress is as a natural mechanism to keep us alive and well. It will expose the seriousness of chronic long-term (low and high level) stress.
