Dubai College Wellbeing Conference

What Works in Wellbeing: A Conference at Dubai College

Friday 11th April, 08:30am - 11:00am 

This year Dubai College is delighted to host a Teachmeet-style Wellbeing Conference for academic professionals in the UAE. 

Intended as a highlight event in the Wellbeing calendar of academic professionals of all curriculums, the Conference focuses on enabling Wellbeing discussion and sharing best practice to foster flourishing school communities.

Seven senior mental health leads from seven different schools in the UAE, mainly from the secondary sector, will share their insights and practical strategies that have made an impact in their schools. This event is primarily aimed at staff in secondary schools, but the content will also be applicable to primary staff who are also welcome to attend.

This is a free event and places are limited, so sign up to hear thought-provoking talks, to take away actionable strategies and to network with like-minded professionals dedicated to enhancing the wellbeing of their school communities.
