Every teacher matters

Staff wellbeing
After World Teachers' Day last week, Julian Stanley asks what the world would look like if we actually realised teachers' worth.

What if we, as a society, were to publicly express how valuable teachers are? What if we were to recognise that teachers are the most valuable resource in education? What if we invested in their wellbeing? Would that reduce the number of teachers leaving the profession each year? Would it raise the quality of teaching and learning in schools? Would it raise the profile of teaching as a profession? What if every teacher mattered?

These were some of the questions posed by Kathryn Lovewell this month when we met at a school in Surrey for the launch of her book Every Teacher Matters.
