How can Readiness help your school?

Readiness is uniquely suited to schools that want to take a proactive approach to promote positive mental health and physical wellbeing. Our student and staff wellbeing platform uses engaging tools to monitor early risk signs and provide personalised solutions. The results? Reduced absenteeism, increased productivity, better relationships and improved mental wellbeing.

How can Readiness help teachers?

It has been a really tough couple of years for the education sector. Teachers have been asked to go above and beyond their normal duties and are burned out and need of support.

We provide a free 8 week program which takes teachers through one topic per week to provide a mix of self and professional development.

St Peter’s Primary School in Victoria is supporting the mental health and wellbeing of its students and teachers using Readiness.

HERE'S HOW

The rates of psychological distress among young Australian children is on the rise, while their wellbeing has also been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Teachers also continue to feel the impacts of the 2020-21 lockdown restrictions.

St Peter’s Primary School began using Readiness in 2020 for year 2 to 6 students and their teachers. As a result, the school has enjoyed an increase in overall wellbeing across all year levels.

“I just wanted to reiterate what a difference Readiness is making to our health and wellbeing offering, especially in the current COVID landscape the ability to be able to have a touchpoint with our Executive and staff has provided insights we would not have been able to detect due to working remotely and isolation.”

Steve Plarre, CEO - Ferguson Plarre Bakehouses

“We’ve used Readiness over the last 2 years and our students and staff have benefited greatly from it. Our teachers are able to gain valuable information and data from the program which then informs not only their teaching but their health and wellness strategies with students. Mental health and wellness are fast becoming one of our most important factors in helping students succeed both academically and socially and Readiness leads them in the right direction. The program has been a great success for us at St. Peter’s and we look forward to continuing to benefit from its use in the future.”

"I’m finding Readiness a really useful tool to monitor the wellbeing of my people through this pandemic. We are pleased to see improvements in staff mental health, body performance and sleep ratings throughout the year, particularly given the stresses faced as a result of work interruptions, living away from home and COVID-19 lockdown restrictions. I highly recommend Readiness for any business wishing to improve the wellbeing of their people and ultimately increase the performance of the organisation.”
