In this thought-provoking episode of Helping Teachers Thrive, Tem explores how the teaching profession has changed over the years and why so many teachers are experiencing burnout, overwhelm and increasing pressure in today’s classrooms. From behaviour management and teacher workload to mental health support, student needs, data tracking, parental communication and accountability measures, this episode unpacks the growing demands placed on modern teachers and why comparing teaching “back then” to teaching today is far more complicated than many people realise.
