The curriculum. The admin overload. The behaviour management. The constant initiatives.
The planning, the corrections, the staffroom politics, the unrealistic expectations.
And through all of it, a growing sense that no matter how much you give, it will never be enough.
You’re mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted even after the weekend.
You’re still showing up.
But it’s taking more out of you than it used to.

A programme rooted in

Psychology

Lived Experience of Teaching

Practical, Real-World Strategies

Evidence-Based Practice

10 Years in Education

Self-compassion

About Mary Bradley

I taught in secondary schools for ten years. I understand the workload, the behavioural demands, the curriculum pressures, and the culture that makes it difficult to say when you’re not coping.

After leaving the classroom, I went on to study an MSc in the Psychology of Mental Health, specialising in stress and burnout. My work now focuses on helping professionals recover from chronic stress in ways that are evidence-based, practical, and sustainable.

Burnout to Balance brings together psychological research and lived experience of teaching- practical strategies designed for the reality of school life.

I can’t change the system. I can’t reduce the demands placed on you. But I can give you the tools to stop losing yourself in the middle of it all and help you find your way back.
