Teaching staff are often very busy, hard working individuals who can take on more than their fair share of responsibilities and obligations in order to provide the best for their schools, colleges and pupils.
Stress levels amongst school and college staff, (whether teaching or non-teaching) can be very high at certain times of the year. Pupils work better when stimulated and relaxed, and the same goes for the teachers……a happy, connected teaching team is an effective one!
Group Laughter sessions can provide an opportunity for staff to join together to enjoy the lighter side of life, to re-energise, let go and have fun!
Laughter sessions help to:-
- Increase energy levels
- Motivate and stimulate creative thinking, linking the left and right sides of the brain
- Reduce stress hormones in the system
- Promote relaxation
- Increase confidence and a sense of well-being
- Strengthen the immune system
- Provide a work out for the body as well as the mind
- Encourage open communication and trust , strengthening team spirit and identity
The Laughter sessions for staff can be adapted according to the needs of the individuals involved. Coaching techniques are included in each session, along with suggested strategies for creating more fun and laughter for staff on the frontline of the educational system.
Schools and colleges we have laughed with include:-
Kent Headteacher Conference, Portsmouth Headteacher Conference, Bournmouth University, Chichester College, Sittingbourne College, Northbrook College, Poole Headteacher Conference, Broadstone Primary, Court Lane Juniors, Liberty Primary, Parley First, St.Jude’s Primary, Darlinghurst Primary.
