Keren Mitchell Superkind: Empowering Children to Shape a Better World

SuperKind is an award-winning, free platform for schools to bring social action and philanthropy into the classroom.  Their website and free resources can help you to create the next generation of change-makers in the easiest and most engaging way. Superkind's Co-founder Keren Mitchell joined us for this episode to tell us about the ways in which Superkind are supporting schools to help children engage in social action and philanthropy and the impact that this is having on not only the mental health and wellbeing of our young people but also their educational outcomes.   Superkind also runs the Social Impact Schools Award which recognises the dedication of schools and their students in having a positive impact on the world. The Award provides independent recognition of schools who are taking amazing social action. It is designed to be light-touch for teachers, and schools who take part will get access to a host of resources such as lesson plans, worksheets, assembly plans, fundraising guides, and certificates.   SuperKind are offering an exclusive 50% discount to schools who heard about the award through WeLeadWell - reducing the registration fee to just £50+VAT!

Om Podcasten

The wellbeing of staff in schools has never been more important. With almost a third of new staff leaving the profession after just five years and 26% of teachers saying they are thinking of leaving in the next 12 months (National Foundation for Educational Research), we are facing a teacher retention crisis. The We Lead Well Podcast has been created in response to this crisis, to encourage and support schools to create places where people love to work. We support leaders to enhance the wellbeing of all staff in schools. Each week, leading educationalists share their experience, views and tips on how other school leaders can promote wellbeing in their organisations for the benefit of all staff.
