Classroom Management and Teacher Wellbeing

Description

A positive classroom climate and a healthy teacher are at the heart of effective learning. This course focuses on practical strategies for managing classrooms with confidence while also strengthening teacher wellbeing.

Participants will explore evidence-based approaches to building routines, preventing behavioural issues, and fostering inclusive and respectful learning environments. Alongside classroom management skills, the course highlights the importance of self-care, resilience, and mindfulness, offering teachers tools to maintain balance and reduce stress.

Through interactive workshops, role-plays, and collaborative activities, teachers will have the chance to reflect on their own practices, share experiences with peers, and develop both professional strategies and personal wellbeing routines.
