N2  - Teachers have never been under so much pressure. High stakes accountability has led to many teachers considering leaving a profession they once loved or resigning. Many cite workload and a lack of professional respect and reward as reasons for their disillusionment. Teachers are suffering from anxiety and depression and, in the worst cases, burnout. The headteachers in this book have reversed this trend by implementing a whole-school culture of staff wellbeing and mental health. It has taken courage, determination and authenticity to strip back the tasks of teaching and focus on what is key in any school - relationships, not only between the children and their teachers but also between the staff themselves. This book is headteachers'/senior leaders' accounts, in their own words, of how focusing on wellbeing and mental health has transformed their schools
