#TeacherBurnout

In an era marked by heightened stress and mounting expectations, recent research highlights ten proven strategies that can help teachers build resilience and reduce the risks of burnout—an issue of growing concern within Thailand’s education system and across the globe. As schools nationwide continue to grapple with heavy workloads, rapidly evolving curricula, and societal pressures, the importance of fostering teacher well-being is more crucial than ever for the future of Thai education.

A major international survey has revealed that nearly half of teachers say the 2024-25 school year has been the most stressful of their careers—surpassing even the tumult of the pandemic era. The findings paint a stark picture of working conditions for educators, and recent research confirms many of these pressures are mirrored among teachers in Thailand, raising urgent questions about the future of the teaching profession and student outcomes locally and globally.
