About the Session

When the hours are long and resources are sparse, it is a huge effort to even get the bare minimum done without compromising your personal life and your relationships. This session is about empowering SENCOs to let go of what they can’t control and develop strategies to find and address the underlying issues within their work life balance.

Why should you watch as a SENCO?

– To develop strategies for putting in place and maintaining boundaries.

– To gain confidence and empowerment in knowing they are not alone.

– To develop strategies for taking back control of work/life balance.
