When wellbeing is prioritised for students and staff, the quality of teaching improves, students achieve better academically and no less importantly young people and colleagues feel happier at school. With the many challenges to maintaining and prioritising wellbeing that teachers and school staff are facing, it can be difficult to know where to start. Selecting wellbeing as the focus of your next inset day could be one answer.

Using an inset day to embed good wellbeing practice may seem like a daunting prospect, but we hope our selection of tools and articles might give you the inspiration you need.
