Are you a stressed teacher? Do you feel overstretched by the responsibilities of the role? Are you suffering from poor work-life balance?

How to Be a Happy Teacher acts as a lifeline for teachers navigating burn-out, guiding them towards a happier and more sustainable experience of teaching. Written in an accessible style by Rachel Boucher, an experienced primary school teacher, her guide offers insights and actionable self-care strategies to improve teacher happiness within our schools.

The book is divided into two distinct sections: Part 1 unpacks crucial aspects of the teaching role, including, but not limited to, acceptance, purpose, prioritisation, self-care, and Ofsted. Part 2 shifts the focus to real life examples and exercises, providing teachers with the tools to address the challenges identified within Part 1.

Whether you're a seasoned educator or just beginning your career, this empowering guide provides the insights, camaraderie, and inspiration you need to succeed within this challenging yet rewarding career.
