Instead of returning to work and falling straight back into the same routine, use your time efficiently and map out each small task so you can make the best use of each day.
Accept and embrace your Monday mornings. See them as a completely clean slate to build on your teaching strengths — and if needed, you could even set yourself a time frame for actually thinking about school on a Sunday at all.
Start the year as you mean to go on. Plan your outfits in advance, give yourself a little bit of extra time to get ready in the morning and you’ll be guaranteed to look and feel your best.
Make this the year you ACTUALLY achieve a healthy work/life balance. Put the pen down and start saying yes — to that meal after work, to another Netflix series or to a well-deserved spa trip
Scheduling time for individual catch-ups with your pupils is close to impossible for any primary school teacher. Instead, you could start letting pupils help you with small classroom tasks. This allows a more natural way of checking in, whilst further strengthening your bond.
