In this episode, I'm sharing tips and strategies for PDHPE and CAFS teachers to start the new school year strong. I discuss advocating for yourself, communicating what's going on at home and work, translating new syllabus changes and policies, initiating action on your goals, orchestrating support needs, and negotiating expectations with your school leadership.
Episode Highlights
- Advocate for yourself by saying no to non-essential tasks outside your job description
- Communicate personal and professional challenges happening at home or work
- Translate new syllabus, policy and budget changes to understand requirements
- Initiate conversations and action on your professional goals and needs
- Orchestrate the support you need such as colleague observations, feedback and co-planning
- Negotiate clear expectations with school leadership for your role and professional growth
