Walk in My Shoes (WIMS) is releasing our new Teacher Year Planner for the 2025/26 school year to help you support students’ wellbeing.
Begin the school year with wellbeing in mind
Teaching is a busy and rewarding journey, and staying organised makes all the difference. The WIMS Year Planner has been designed with teachers in mind to help you plan ahead, keep track of key dates, and make space for wellbeing along the way.
This free resource can offer ideas and inspiration to help you plan simple, creative wellbeing activities with your class.
The planner is designed to support teachers throughout the school year, providing an easy way to highlight important dates and map out opportunities for student learning and wellbeing.
A new school year brings new challenges and opportunities. This planner is here to help you stay organised, make the most of each term, and find little moments of balance and positivity along the way.
How to access your planner
The 2025/26 Teacher Year Planner is available to download below. For best results, we suggest printing it in A2 size. We hope you will share the download link with colleagues and other schools who may benefit from using it.
We’re also giving teachers and school staff the opportunity to have a printed version posted to their school. Simply complete our planner registration form here by Tuesday, 30 September 2025 to receive copies by post. Each school can order up to 15 copies.
