The resource is laid out in 6 weekly themes, with ‘week 1’ starting at the return to school following the summer break.  The themes for the weeks have been carefully considered to communicate what it is that we want adults to hear and feel from their school environment in the weeks following their transition back from lockdown. These themes have been developed on the basis of psychological theory and logical sequences of learning.

Each theme includes:

• • What do staff need to know?
  • What can staff do?
    • Professional Reading
    • Practical ideas for all staff to consider how they can translate the weekly theme into actions.
    • This section contains ideas ‘for ourselves’ and ‘for others’.
    • Staff ‘thought for the day’ infographic.

Staff wellbeing is key to recovery in the school community. We hope you will find some ideas and resources in these sections which offer you some support.  Click here for the weekly plan for Skills for Recovery for Staff and see the weekly infographic by clicking on the weeks below.  (Please note that some links may be blocked in school but can be accessed easily through a mobile device.)
