ABSTRACT

Educator Wellbeing, written in response to the 2020 Global Pandemic, speaks to the long-ignored expectations that Educators live with and the impact on their wellbeing that going above and beyond to serve their students has. This book is a relatable and practical read for teachers to build tools for life, bringing their wellbeing to the forefront. It provides a toolbox of preventative and responsive strategies to help Educators look after their wellbeing so they can continue with supporting their students.

Madhavi Nawana Parker provides a supportive and practical wellbeing framework that can be tailored to meet teachers’ unique and personal needs, and supports theory with personal vignettes to bring to life topics such as:

  • Areas for improved wellbeing in the current climate
  • Giving yourself permission to prioritise wellbeing
  • Wellbeing for Educators going forward

A timely response to an international event with far-reaching effects, Educator Wellbeing has never been more needed by practitioners, as a contemporary answer and basis for a new tradition of supportive practice.
