Wellbeing in Schools
Staff wellbeing is a key component of Ofsted’s Education Inspection Framework. Leaders are required to prioritise the wellbeing of their staff while providing the necessary professional development to support their growth and success.
At Wellbeing for Education, we understand that schools are fast-paced environments, and educators and leadership teams often face time constraints. That's why we offer flexible, targeted wellbeing support for your staff, precisely when they need it most.
Our programmes not only provide critical support but also serve as evidence of your school’s proactive approach to wellbeing. By fostering resilience and improving staff retention, our programmes help create a healthier, more sustainable school environment.

"I feel coaching is essential. The flexibility of the programme is extremely helpful as I was able to tailor it around when I needed it most. There are many challenges facing education and it helps to have a neutral person to talk to."
"It provides a psychologically safe space to discuss sticky issues. It is an independent voice that allows you to speak freely and without fear of being judged. It definitely supports wellbeing."
"Talking through issues was very useful. It stops the rumination of worrying about problems and helps with finding solutions."
