Teachers’ burnout is a recurring challenge in many teachers’ life. Problematic students, difficult parents, excessive workloads, lack of resources, are some of the challenges that contribute to teachers feeling burnout.

Great support from the management and colleagues can help teachers in dealing with their daily frustrations. But with the countless daily problems, sometimes it’s difficult for the management to prioritize which problems are more alarming.

Ballrum is an internal communication platform between teachers and school management to flag, prioritize, and solve recurring problems together.

Teachers can express their frustrations in the group feed and other teachers can leave their tips or comments. They can also help by up-voting the post, which makes the circle bigger in the feed, making it easier for the management to prioritize.

The app comes with a glowing stress ball to help teachers externalize their feelings physically. It records teachers' individual and collective usage data
which gives the management indication of the overall frustration level of the team.

It can also be paired with downloadable exercises and games to help relieve their stress.

With the spirit of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals, Ballrum aims to improve teachers' well-being, to continue providing quality education for the people.
