Teachers, Change and Stress is attractively presented
and is a valuable resource for teachers.
Work-related Stress is a significant occupational health
and safety issue for teachers.
Educational Change and increased expectations,
together with lack of appreciation are major contributors. This
is reinforced by recent research findings.
Paul Grover, Head Teacher English and History
at James Fallon High School, has brought together papers which analyse
the stressors and their effects. The articles cover current research
and offer strategies to reduce stress. All this is presented in
a context of relevant Christian principles.
