Head teachers are still playing a key role as caregivers to their staff. Well-being is something people in school generally expect to be “done” to them. Personal accountability for one’s own health and well-being is still a growth area in schools. Any change processes implemented to support this process need to be continually tailored and respectfully nuanced to meet the evolving needs of the staff and organization throughout the intervention. Accruing quantitative evidence to support the effects of well-being work in schools is painstaking and challenging.

The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
