Handling stress

Description

Does coping with Year 9 make you want to head for the doctor and ask for a sick note? Are you exhausted by morning breaktime? In this programme, Professor Cary Cooper from Lancaster University is joined by psychologist Professor Ben Fletcher from the University of Hertfordshire and occupational psychologist Emma Donaldson-Feilder in the first of a four-part series investigating how to reduce stress in schools. Using scientific data gathered in a week-long series of experiments measuring stress in a typical secondary school, our three psychologists recommend effective ways of handling stress. They also look at its most common causes and demonstrate how stress levels can be reduced by individual teachers.
