15. Impact on Staff
“Since the beginning of last term, the focus on staff wellbeing has had positive impacts all around the school. The staff shout outs in the staff room have been really inspiring and motivating to read – the small gesture goes a long way! Not only is it great and humbling to spot your own name up there, but it’s great to have the opportunity to boost everyone’s overall confidence. A fantastic idea!” Miss Mamdani, Year 3
