Episode 1 - ‘The best medicine is laughter’

Tom and Luca open the first episode of the series with an honest look at the teaching profession from the comforts of the beer garden. Luca’s top 3 vitamins for the 1st aid kit are- #1 Remember you are in a room full of comedians- laugh at them. #2 When you leave at the end of the day, switch off. #3 Remember that you are human- you won’t always get things right. Tom’s 1st aid kit includes #1.1 Get energy from others- surround yourself with strength- avoid the mood hoovers. #1.2 Preparation is key- get your resources ready and think smart by re-using and editing the same resources. #1.3 Network- connect with other teachers outside your school- go and find your tribe!
