CHoose your own adventure
Your school can choose any, or combination of, the services that we offer. From initial consultation, to developing a planned approach, to the RFAST introduction workshop for staff, or RSO specialist data collection tools. Or you might just choose to have us interview staff or run focus groups. Maybe you might just need support with the risk assessment process. We are here to support your school on your unique journey towards developing a Psychosocial Hazard Risk Management Plan, building connected resilience and psychosocial safety, and in the WHS space, in anyway you choose.
The best place to start is (rfast)
RFAST – Resilience First Aid Safety Training (2 hours – flexible delivery options) is the perfect way to kick off the collaborative process required by policy and legislation for the development of your schools psychosocial risk management journey. RFAST introduces staff to psychosocial hazards (measured through the JSECC) in the context of mental health promotion, prevention and personal resilience (Measured through the PR6).
There are significant challenges for school leadership teams in the beginning stages of introducing staff to psychosocial hazards. NOT WITH RFAST – Our approach wraps psychosocial hazard management in a positive package of connected resilience and psychological safety. Delve into the evolving world of mental health promotion and psychological injury prevention and learn how to create a safe, connected and resilient school culture through psychosocial hazard awareness.
rsO Objectives
The primary objective of the Resilient Safe Schools approach is to efficiently and effectively identify psychosocial hazards in schools and collaboratively develop and implement a Psychosocial Hazard Risk Management Plan in record time (we aim for 4 weeks).
We empower schools to rise to the challenge of ever increasing complexity, improving preventative approaches to mental health and progressing towards connected resilience with expert guidance, greater confidence and competence. Leading to evolving cultures of safety, connectedness and resilience.
Staff members will also be given the essential knowledge, skills, and strategies to effectively enhance their resilience across six critical domains: Vision, Composure, Reasoning, Tenacity, Collaboration, and Health. Individuals will learn how to cultivate a resilient mindset, manage stress and emotions, set and achieve meaningful goals, improve relationships, and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Principals and School Leaders are under enormous pressure as evidenced in the Australian Principals Occupational Health, Safety and Wellbeing Survey 2023.
While violent assaults, threats, and bullying against the profession is on the rise, the top sources of stress for school leaders was the sheer quantity of work, lack of time to focus on teaching and learning, mental health of students, mental health of staff, and student-related issues.
Nearly half of the Principals surveyed reported being physically attacked in 2023, a staggering 78% increase from 2011 when the survey first started.
“The most alarming finding of the Survey is the proportion of WA principals who received a Red Flag email – with 50% of all WA principals identified as being at risk of serious mental health concerns” Melissa Gillett – President WASSEA.

Individualised Reports for staff members using the pr6
This is one of the most robust models of wellbeing that we have found. The PR6 assesses the domains of vision, composure, reasoning, health, tenacity and collaborations. To think that we have tried to leverage change from a single element. Mindfulness, they say, will make the difference. You just have to breathe properly. A better way to robust resilience is formed on the foundation of the 24 skills. In essence developing resilience is the pathway to wellbeing.
Imagine a school culture where each staff member has enhanced skills in the 24 components of the Predictive Resilience 6 model. A school culture where connected resilience and psychological safety are valued and supported at all levels. Where conversations around strengths and resilient skills spotting are the norm. A school that becomes a beacon for the community, amplifying mental health promotion and psychological injury prevention. A culture that is infectious and spreads outward, influencing the community in a vital and action oriented way.
