Teaching is a frontline vocation with high rates of stress and burnout. My workshops have been developed specifically for teachers to give your staff the time and space to look at stress management, burnout prevention and maintaining a work-life balance.

Teach and Thrive Training.®

I offer interactive face to face (or online) workshops designed specifically for teachers. These workshops work really well as part of an INSET day, twilight session or teacher training session.

Topics include:

1) How to manage stress and overwhelm.

2) How you can manage your time and energy to get through to the end of term.

3) How to juggle different priorities as a teacher.

4) Looking after your wellbeing as a teacher.

5) Sunday night syndrome - what can I do about it?

I can also offer bespoke sessions specific to your school.

Testimonials.

  • “The “Teach and Thrive” workshop was brilliantly delivered by Pippa. The wellbeing topics covered were very relevant for us as teachers. Even though she had the “graveyard shift” directly after lunch, the interactions were participated wholeheartedly and the buzz around the room was positive and upbeat.

    Pippa’s excellent communication about her knowledge and understanding was balanced with fabulous examples that were pertinent to our teaching roles.”

    Fee, Teacher.

  • “I didn’t have a fixed agenda prior to starting coaching but I was aware that there were things that were not optimal about my work life balance and also that there were aspects of my job I found disproportionally stressful. The coaching sessions with Pippa gave me an opportunity to explore these challenges and think about long term sustainable changes rather than quick fixes. Working with Pippa has been really positive. She has given me space and time to talk and reflect while appropriately questioning things I have said and encouraging me to explore my own solutions to challenges”.

    ALW, Head of Sixth Form.

  • “I attended one of Pippa’s Teach and Thrive sessions. She spoke with enthusiasm and was able to connect to her audience on a personal level. Her medical background gave her gravitas, and this made the content even more interesting and engaging. She allowed a good amount of time for reflection and discussion and at no point did I feel that we were being lectured. It felt like she was in it with us. As a group of teachers, it was a refreshing change to go to an INSET where the presentation did not rely on the PowerPoint being read to us, rather it augmented what Pippa was talking about. In addition, she also finished when she said she would- always a bonus!”

    Camilla, Teacher.


  • “Pippa’s ‘Teach and Thrive’ course exceeded my expectations!

    Despite the challenging post-lunch slot, Pippa kept us engaged for the full 90 minutes. Her interactive and professional delivery made us reflect on our teaching motivations and understand stress management. Pippa’s practical advice on activating our calming nervous system was invaluable. She also reminded us to find joy in our work and cherish supportive colleagues. We are already planning our next session!”

  • “My session with Pippa gave me a valuable space to think entirely about aspects of my life that needed changing. Pippa listened brilliantly to my complex issues to do with my role as carer of teens, elderly relatives, as well as juggling two businesses where I am self employed. Pippa helped to clarify & summarise the main issues, as well as any solutions I suggested. She listened & allowed me the luxury of thinking about my life, in a safe space where I felt valued. She sent follow up summary points which was extremely helpful too. I would thoroughly recommend talking to Pippa. I felt less stressed after our chat & empowered to make positive changes to my life.”

  • “Pippa delivered a Teach and Thrive coaching session to all staff as part of our INSET. It was an engaging and thought-provoking session that encouraged us to reflect on our own challenges and focus on what we can control. Staff appreciated the practical strategies and the opportunity to make a clear, personal plan for wellbeing. A truly useful and relevant session that gave us tools to take forward. There was a strong sense of collegiality as we recognised how many of us are juggling the same pressures and spinning similar plates. It was both reassuring and motivating to pause together and acknowledge the emotional demands of working in education”.

  • “I wanted to extend my sincere thanks for the wonderful session on well-being. It truly provided so much food for thought and gave us lots to think about as we reflect on our own practices. Your ability to relate to and understand the needs of teachers made the session both insightful and inspiring. There is so much to take away from what you shared and I know it will have a lasting impact not only on our approach to teaching but also on our daily lives.”
