The Mindful Educator Introduction Workshop or Presentation 
(Create a Mindful School Culture)

Introductory session for teachers and staff is a good way to start bringing mindfulness into your school. It should dispel myths about mindfulness, offer an opportunity to try out some practices, explain the evidence for its benefits. It will help your team decide whether you would like to develop further and bring mindfulness to the entire school. The next step would be The Mindful Educator Program, a program specifically for teachers, administration, and staff to learn how develop mindfulness in your personal life and create a "mindful school" culture.

​                                                                7 Ways Mindfulness Can Help Teachers

Why should staff learn mindfulness?
At its most simple there are two main reasons:
  1. Mindfulness enhances the well-being and resilience of your staff, among many other benefits. ‘Evidence for Mindfulness: Impacts on the Wellbeing and Performance of School Staff‘ by Katherine Weare, Emeritus Professor, Universities of Exeter and Southampton
  2. Your teachers need to have understood mindfulness personally – from the inside – before they can be expected to teach it well to young people.

Mindful Educator Program

What are the outcomes from the Mindful Educator Program?
  • All participants learn helpful strategies and understanding to boost wellbeing
  • Most keep practicing and exploring mindfulness
  • Some develop the passion and regular practice to go on and teach others

Why run the Mindful Educator Program on-site??
A face-to-face course is a very important step in creating a mindful school:
1. It enables the development of a mindful culture and core staff group within school.
2. Experiencing ‘in-person’ face-to-face group mindfulness teaching offers a crucial model for those who go on to teach pupils.
3. Hosting the course on site makes it accessible to a larger number of staff.
4. Staff feel that their well-being is valued by the school.
