In this blog, Gemma Drinkall questions the common phrase “I give 100% to teaching,” arguing that it promotes an unrealistic and damaging culture within education. She explains that giving 100% of oneself – physically, emotionally, and mentally – is impossible and harmful, creating guilt, burnout, and unhealthy competition among staff.
Instead, she introduces the ‘Spoon Theory’, a way of visualising daily energy as a finite resource. Like anyone else, teachers have limited “spoons” to spend and must learn to prioritise how they use them, saving enough for themselves, their families, and life outside school.
Gemma encourages educators to move away from martyrdom and towards self-awareness and balance. By recognising that energy varies daily and by setting boundaries, teachers can sustain their wellbeing and effectiveness long-term.
