Protect Your Energy: Boundaries, Workload and Recovery

Teaching is a giving profession, and without healthy boundaries your time, energy and attention can easily end up being drained. This session explores how boundaries support sustainable performance, and offers practical strategies for managing what you give - and to whom - while building in the recovery time that makes it all sustainable.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

1. Understand how unclear boundaries erode time, energy and attention - and why recovery is essential to sustained performance
2. Identify practical strategies for managing workload, availability and recovery across the school day and week
3. Explore how talking about and modelling healthy boundaries in the classroom (as relevant to the age group) supports student wellbeing and creates a more positive learning environment and better outcomes.
