I work with headteachers. I find that they don't tend to be particularly kind to themselves when we start out. It takes time for self-kindness to grow, but when it gets established, amazing things start to happen 😊 #headteacherwellbeing #selfkindness #leadershipwellness

Watching headteachers starting to be kinder to themselves ❤️ reminds me of seeing someone fumbling through a dark tunnel who suddenly remembers they have a torch in their bag and switches it on. 💡

A dep head I coached recently said the thought of moving into headship made him feel like he was stepping out onto a ledge. (Great metaphor!) We explored how that step might feel less daunting. ⬇️

I'm so pleased to have been mentioned in @drjessm.bsky.social 's review column in @schoolsweek.bsky.social even though it took me a while to realise 😂! The blog was the result of several years of reflection. Funny how things that you've been puzzling about suddenly slot into place one day!

Had a nice day off with mum in Durham yesterday. Visited The Story - a fabulous new local history centre. (Brilliant for school trips I'd say, NE teachers) Love this picture of 4 Durham policemen c.1864. You wouldn't mess with these guys 🫣

I realised a few months back that being a slow reader was holding me back and that I'd accepted it as part of my identity. I decided to take my own advice and step out of my comfort zone. I'm learning speed reading strategies. Going well so far. Has anyone else tried this?

What really helped you to make it through the last year in your headteacher role?
