2025 Michelle Mitchell: BRISBANE

In a world where the mental health and wellbeing of students are at the forefront, the art of teaching has never been more critical. Effective teaching requires more than delivering curriculum—it calls for creating authentic connections and safe spaces that foster respect, trust, and engagement. Michelle’s work emphasises the significance of human relationships in educational contexts, highlighting how attachment influences student behaviour and learning.

This professional development day is designed to provide educators from primary and secondary settings with practical strategies to promote relational intelligence, and support students’ mental health—all while prioritising teacher wellbeing.

Through reflection, discussion, and hands-on tools, this day is about making your teaching experience more rewarding and impactful.

Practical Takeaways:

• Ideas to building connection and rapport with your students
• Firm ways to help students navigate friendship challenges
• Strategies to support kids struggling with poor mental health
• Tools to foster a sense of belonging and engagement
• Strategies for providing feedback to support the development of self-esteem
