TTS Resources - Episode 2 | Preventing Teacher Burnout with Dr Martin Brunet & Mr. P

Lee Parkinson, also known as Mr. P, is joined by another exciting and insightful guest, Dr Martin Brunet. Throughout this episode, Lee and Martin continue the discussion around the theme of mental health in teaching. They start by looking at burnout, the concept of moral distress and the steps teachers can take to set effective boundaries in their day-to-day lives. They then dive into how the teaching calendar means that unlike many professions, teachers are all running a joint long-distance sprint as opposed to a relay race with their colleagues. They also explore other common teaching mental health concerns including anxiety and imposter syndrome, and how to manage these difficult feelings.
