About the Webinar

The pressure on teachers during the pandemic has been immense. From managing lockdowns and remote learning, dealing with staff shortages, stressed-out students (and their families), it is no wonder schools are experiencing high levels of burnout and stress in their workforce. If left unmanaged, or managed without due consideration, these issues can easily result in significant operational, legal and reputational damage for a school. This session will discuss:

  • The duty of care and how this extends to illness and injury arising from stress and burnout
  • The relationship between claims of workplace bullying and poor performance management practices
  • Tips for best practice performance management to prevent workplace bullying or stress claims
  • Tips for managing conversations sensitively and compassionately and knowing how far to probe or when assistance or specialist expertise is required
