This is a review of McCuaig et al. (2022)'s, Teachers as Health Workers: A Critical Understanding of the Health-Education Interface. The book details a research project involving 12 Australian schools that was conducted by four critical health educators. McCuaig et al. poignantly map the health work of teachers through an analysis of health policies interviews with teachers and observations in schools. They conclude that to meet both the health and academic needs of students, the silos in which health and education are constructed must be permeated through a form of boundary spanning. And as such, boundary spanning professionals must be given adequate training and recognition to adequately meet student needs and avoid a state of burnout. |
