Session Four with Sue Webb: Pathways to Success - The Path Less Travelled
POSTPONED - new date TBA

This webinar asks at its core, “Am I becoming the teacher I want to be?” How can middle years educators deliver on their goals and objectives and remain focused on the core purpose of their work – connecting with teenagers? Through the lens of sustainability this webinar looks at the protective factors teachers and school leaders can use to minimise the risks associated with workplace stress, avoid energy deficit, and optimise their capacity both as professionals, and as people. It offers an opportunity to pause and reflect on your teacher-story so far, and the chapter you decide to write next.

Presenter: Sue Webb is a freelance educator and consultant, author, optimist, and passionate facilitator for sustainable work practices in all areas of education. When she’s not in the classroom, Sue speaks with teachers and school leaders about working with balance so that we don’t tip into depletion. She holds a Master’s in Educational Leadership, was a finalist in the teaching excellence awards for her work in mentoring, is assistant editor for the Australian Journal of Middle Schooling, and always does webinars with a coffee – so bring yours!
