Step 5 – Lead Mindfulness

Train as your School Mindfulness Lead

The most affordable longer-term path to embed mindfulness in your school or chain of schools is to train up one or more of your staff as ‘mindfulness leads’.

The course prepares .b and Paws b teachers to lead the .b Foundations taster session and eight-session curriculum, but also to become a ‘mindfulness lead’ within the school or educational organisation where they are employed.

Teacher Supervision

Ongoing training for our .b, Paws b, dots and .b Foundations teachers in the form of one-to-one supervision or small group supervision sessions. These provide the opportunity to reflect upon and inquire about your mindfulness teaching and practice with an experienced trained mindfulness teacher and supervisor.

Unlike other experiences of supervision that you may have had, MiSP’s supervision sessions focus not only on your mindfulness practice and how it impacts on your work and your everyday life, but also on your teaching of MiSP courses.

Frequently asked questions

Why train ‘in-house’?

Whilst you need outside expertise initially to kick start mindfulness, an in-house ‘mindfulness lead’ plays an important role in embedding it for the longer term by:

  • Running eight week-courses and drop-in sessions for staff on an on-going basis.
  • Developing a depth of personal understanding to guide and orient your school’s mindful culture
  • Tailoring the teaching and practice of mindfulness to your school’s own unique needs. Every school is different.
  • Doing the above in a way which is affordable and sustainable.

Can anybody train?

No. You need to have developed a depth of personal understanding of mindfulness and experience of how it works in schools.
