Listen Later

“Let's recognise the autonomy and the power and the control we have to make schools great workplaces for educators.” Amy Green

Workload in education is one of the biggest challenges facing schools today. It shapes the way teachers teach, the way school leaders lead, and the way students learn.

In this episode, host Meg Durham speaks with Amy Green, educator, leader, and author of Teacher Wellbeing and Leading Wellbeing.

Together they explore the reality of workload in schools, why clear processes matter for students and teachers, and how schools can create the conditions for deep work, clarity, and purpose.

By tuning in, you will learn:

  • How to manage teacher workload more effectively.
  • Why perfectionism adds to the pressure.
  • The importance of autonomy and competence for educators.
  • Practical ways to protect staff time, energy, and focus
  • This conversation will leave you with greater clarity, practical strategies for teacher wellbeing, and the encouragement to rethink not just how much work we do in schools, but why we do it and whether it is still fit for purpose.
