8 Common Phrases That Promote Toxic Positivity in Schools
SHARE

Toxic positivity is a real issue that can manifest in schools, even with the best intentions. While promoting positivity is important, it is crucial to ensure that it does not come at the expense of ignoring or suppressing negative emotions. Here are some common phrases that may inadvertently promote toxic positivity in schools:

1. “We’re a family”: While this phrase can convey a sense of unity and support, it can also be used to guilt teachers into accepting unfair workloads or responsibilities.

2. “We do what’s best for kids” or “Kids come first”: These phrases can dismiss teachers’ valid concerns and needs by implying that they should prioritize students above all else.

3. “Leave your negativity at the door”: This message can discourage open communication and constructive feedback, leading to a culture of silence and compliance.

4. “That’s a classroom management issue” or “That’s a relationship issue”: These phrases can oversimplify complex problems in the classroom and dismiss the need for systemic change.

5. “Teamwork makes the dream work!” or “Be a team player!”: While teamwork is important, these phrases can be used to pressure already overburdened teachers into taking on more responsibilities.

6. “Remember your ‘why'”: While reflecting on one’s motivations can be valuable, using this phrase to guilt or manipulate teachers into compliance is unfair and unproductive.

7. “We’re all in this together”: This phrase can ring hollow if school leaders are not actively sharing in the challenges and sacrifices faced by teachers.

8. “We don’t do this for the money” or “In it for the outcome, not the income”: While teachers may not be in the profession for the money, fair compensation is essential for their well-being and professionalism.

To combat toxic positivity in schools, it is important to foster a culture of honesty, transparency, and genuine support. School leaders can inspire positivity by acknowledging teachers’ hard work, providing meaningful support, and valuing their contributions. By promoting open communication and collaboration, schools can create a healthier and more empowering environment for all stakeholders.
