The vast majority of teachers enjoy teaching and are positive about their workplace and colleagues, but they are disappointed by the profession. According to the UK's Health and Safety Executive, teaching staff and education professionals report the highest rates of work-related stress, depression and anxiety in Britain. A colossal 81% of teachers say that they have considered leaving teaching in the last year because of workload. I've been there myself, and I have come out of the other end triumphant. In this book I'm going to show you that it is possible to be a guilt-free, effective teacher, without compromising on the quality of your teaching or time with friends and family, and without giving away your precious evenings, weekends and holidays. The book includes true and tested strategies which continue to work well for me, and I'm confident they will work for you. I'll provide you with 'real world' tools from someone who, just like you, is in the classroom Monday to Friday. I'm going to demonstrate how you can tackle your ever-increasing workload, including both ways of reducing it and ways to improve your own productivity. I'm going to show you that it is possible to obtain healthy levels of occupational well-being and truly achieve a work-life balance. You are going to get your life back.

Stop talking about wellbeing, and start taking action to own your workload. As the teacher retention crisis reaches breaking point, and mental health for teachers features regularly in the press, wellbeing has been pushed to the top of the national agenda in a bid for schools to consider how to look after their staff. However, wellbeing is becoming a tokenistic feature within the education sector, as staff participate in compulsory wellbeing-linked activities that have very little impact on their workload or ability to do what they came into the profession to achieve: inspiring young people. In a critical consideration of a range of educational research, Kat explores the key factors that form a teacher's role within school, outlining a range of ways that teachers can take ownership of their workload, and wellbeing through a sense of true job fulfilment. Interviewing expert teachers in their field and taking a Kat provides practical strategies for teachers at any point of their career to take away and implement immediately, in a bid to improve the educational landscape for teachers everywhere.

The best-selling book of easy-to-implement classroom lessons from the world’s premier educational system—now available in paperback. Finland shocked the world when its fifteen-year-olds scored highest on the first Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), a set of tests evaluating critical-thinking skills in math, science, and reading. That was in 2001; even today, this tiny Nordic nation continues to amaze. How does Finnish education—with short school days, light homework loads, and little standardized testing—produce students who match the PISA scores of other nations with more traditional “work ethic” standards? When Timothy Walker started teaching fifth graders at a Helsinki public school, he began a search for the secrets behind the successes of Finland’s education system. Highlighting specific strategies that support joyful K–12 classrooms and can be integrated with U.S. educational standards, this book, available in paperback for the first time, gathers what he learned and shows how any teacher can implement many of Finland's best practices. A new foreword by the author addresses the urgent questions of teaching, and living, in these pandemic times.

The moment is right for critical reflection on what has been assumed to be a core part of schooling. In Ungrading, fifteen educators write about their diverse experiences going gradeless. Some contributors are new to the practice and some have been engaging in it for decades. Some are in humanities and social sciences, some in STEM fields. Some are in higher education, but some are the K-12 pioneers who led the way. Based on rigorous and replicated research, this is the first book to show why and how faculty who wish to focus on learning, rather than sorting or judging, might proceed. It includes honest reflection on what makes ungrading challenging, and testimonials about what makes it transformative. CONTRIBUTORS: Aaron Blackwelder Susan D.
