Being on the Other Side with Emily Dalzell

Emily Dalzell speaks to Toria about life 'on the other side' of
teaching, where, after 11 years as a Head of Music in secondary
schools, left the profession after a serious mental health
breakdown and Bipolar Disorder diagnosis. She speaks about the
vital need to open the conversation about how schools (in
particular, school leaders) can do more to support teachers with
a mental health condition and discusses the 'other side' of
teaching that doesn't often get spoken about; the struggle
teachers face to manage living with mental health issues, the
lack of understanding and differentiation between 'wellbeing' and
understanding mental health and how schools should empower
teachers to thrive, not just about survive.
