Developing Personal Resilience

C.A.R.E. For Educators

Cultivating Active Resilience in/thro’ Education

As schools become busier and more challenging places in which to work, resilience building is more important than
ever to ensuring the long-term wellbeing of teachers and leaders.

Resilience is the individual capacity to confront challenges in a way that enables us to cope and emerge without long-lasting, detrimental outcomes. It is also about becoming a stronger person as a result of having withstood and overcome challenging
experiences.

·Standards

·Emotions

·Capacity to be resilient

B. Coaching teachers in approaches to strengthening Resilience through 3 elements of control, using Mowbray’s ‘Resilience Development Framework’:

2. Control over responses to events

3. Control over responses to other people
