“This is a powerful, thoughtful book that goes beyond treating symptoms, towards looking at the root causes of poor well-being…Strategies are offered that are aimed at supporting leaders to develop a culture of collective endeavor. This is a compelling resource for leaders everywhere—highly recommended.”

Dame Alison Peacock, chief executive of the Chartered College of Teaching

Many teachers, support staff, and school leaders are tired, stressed, and overstretched. And even though this frequently makes the headlines, it isn't a new problem. In this book, Mark Solomons and Fran Abrams argue staff well-being should be rooted in the culture and climate of our schools. They provide a roadmap to recovery for struggling schools which should lead to improvements in staff morale, workload management, and mental well-being.

With a range of real-life examples, this book focuses on how school leaders can build workplace well-being in even the most challenging environments. It includes clear links to research evidence and summaries of the key steps necessary to deal with common issues such as:

● Identifying and mapping issues in your school

● Leading for well-being

● Creating and maintaining a happy workforce

● Developing a culture of everyday well-being

● Overseeing change
