Is Burnout Just a Buzzword?

Back in the 70s, researchers started noticing that a lot of social workers were hitting a wall. They were exhausted, unhappy, and starting to detach from their work (Freudenberger, 1974).

This sparked a whole wave of research, and eventually, the "Maslach Burnout Inventory" was born (Maslach & Jackson, 1981). This handy tool helped us understand the three core signs of burnout: emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation (feeling cynical and distant), and a sense of reduced personal accomplishment.

The Pressure Map:
Spot the Attendance Crisis Before It Hits Your Desk

A free diagnostic for school leadership teams to catch relationship breakdowns at transition points, before they become formal complaints.

It starts small.

A child struggling at the gate.
A rushed goodbye because staff have thirty seconds, not three minutes.
A parent who leaves worried and doesn't quite trust it'll be handled the same way tomorrow.

Six weeks later it's an attendance flag on your desk, or a complaint in your inbox.

The pattern was there the whole time, you just didn't have a way to see it early.

The Pressure Map shows you exactly where those transition points are breaking down in your school, before they turn into a crisis you're managing reactively.
