About this Bundle

This bundle is all about bringing out the best in your team. Teachers (and administrators) who feel good about coming to work, have healthy relationships with their colleagues, communicate & collaborate in a clear and kind manner, will be more effective employees. They will bring a higher level of energy into the classroom, and they will demonstrate greater resiliency when confronted with adversity.
It consists of 2 self led courses that cover:
- Staff Culture and Communication Part 1 (2 hours)
- Staff Culture and Communication Part 2 (2 hours) (coming Term 3)
