Welcome back for season FOUR of the SEND Network Podcast!
It’s no secret that being a SENCO can be stressful as well as at times a lonely job. Sometimes you may be so focused on your students learning and wellbeing, that you neglect your own mental health needs.
As part of Stress Awareness Month, Lorraine Petersen provides tips on how to look after your own mental health both in and out of the school environment. Including:
- Learning how to better delegate work
- Time management
- Strategies to help your mental health outside of school
