...add to this staff-on-staff racism and gender! This must be addressed. It also begins with speaking up for your colleagues too - we must call this behaviour in. @gtcs produced a guide: Ethics in Teaching: Speaking up Guide
Over 320 teachers from across the UK have spoken to Sky News alleging they have experienced staff-on-staff bullying at their schools. More than a third have had serious, credible thoughts or plans to harm themselves. Many found their mental health was in crisis
