Class People stress the importance of flexible working

Education Recruitment Company Class People are helping to highlight the importance of National Stress Awareness Month by holding a yoga class at work.

The supply agency invited yoga teacher Catherine Brooker-Magee to hold a class which replaced their weekly Monday morning meeting.

Teaching has been found to be one of the most stressful professions, and according to a recent national survey 80% of classroom teachers have seriously considered leaving the profession in the past 12 months.

Class People invited their teachers, teaching assistants and early years practitioners to join them for the yoga class as a stress-relieving way to start the week.

Lynis Bassett, CEO of Class People, says:

“Working within the education sector, we understand how stressful conditions can be and so we champion supply work as a reputable option and solution to these issues. As a former teacher myself I know first-hand at how challenging some days can be, so recognising when you need to take a break is crucial if you want to stay in the profession.”

Class People provide supply teachers, teaching assistants, SEN staff and early years practitioners to schools and settings across the South West.
