If you're a teacher on here, following the education debate, be mindful of its impact on your mental wellbeing. Discussing shared issues is important and helpful - constant negativity about teaching is not. Curate your timeline carefully to balance it out because it will corrode

If you're a leader on here, the same applies. There is some really unkind and unfair stuff on here at times, from people who have never done your job or have no idea just how difficult it is. Listening is important, but you're not a nameless punchbag either - curate your timeline

If you're thinking about becoming a teacher, and you use this app to get an idea of current issues, remember: EduTwitter not the real world. It is an incredibly challenging job but it is an incredible job and you might just fall in love with it. Curate your timeline.

@michael_merrick Engaging in discussions is essential, but it's also crucial to know when to step back for our own well-being.
