variety of disciplines. Bell and Waters present an honest and
practical look at a daunting academic undertaking and provide the
student with a resource that is currently has no parallel. This new
edition brings the text up to date with a look at some of the more
creative approaches the research project might take and challenges
students to think before making research decisions.' Dr Susan

and Life Sciences, Oxford Brookes University, UK
Staff in schools have never been under so much pressure with high
stakes accountability leading many teachers to rethink their
profession. A third of Early Career Teachers are leaving within 5
years of training while Headteachers are less sure than ever that
they will be able to continue to lead their schools. We have a
staff wellbeing and mental health crisis in education. The schools
in Cultures of Staff Wellbeing and Mental Health have addressed
this crisis by implementing a whole-school culture of staff
wellbeing and mental health. It has taken courage, determination
and authenticity to prioritise relationships over results, not only
between the children and their teachers, but also between the staff
themselves. This book will support your school with: *32 individual
chapter case-study accounts by headteachers and mental wellbeing
leads of how they are implementing staff and pupil wellbeing in
their schools. A rich resource of strategies and ideas to adapt to
your own context. *How to recognise and tackle staff burnout in
your school, identifying the Maslach factors that cause it. *Why
teachers putting 'a brave face on it' is ineffective: Jonathan
Glazzard presents his ground- breaking research identifying a
connection between teacher wellbeing, pupil emotional response and
attainment. *What 'buffer' leadership is and why recognising it is
crucial to the headteacher's mental health. This book belongs to
the staff of the case-study schools that recount, in their own
words, how focusing on wellbeing and mental health has transformed
their schools. "This book exemplifies good practice and will
hopefully inspire others to follow its case study leads." David
Gumbrell, Founder of The Resilience Project "This book is an
outstanding reference guide for all school leaders who wish to
implement a culture of wellbeing based on evidence and success. A
must read!" Suneta Bagri (FCCT), Former Head teacher, Founder of
The Every Teacher Matters Project & Cultivate Coaching &
Consultancy "The editor not only encourages the reader to engage
& empower all staff to see and own their own wellbeing, but
also for leaders to model self-care & the promotion of
sustainable wellbeing behaviour." Patrick Ottley-O'Connor,
Executive Headteacher "A must read for any school wanting to
strengthen the wellbeing of their school community." Daniela
Falecki, Founder and Director Teacher Wellbeing Pty Ltd, Sydney
