Enhancing the management of free time for teachers is crucial for balancing professional growth and personal well-being in the digital and green age. Co-designing flexible school schedules that integrate digital and green activities throughout the academic year can optimise the implementation of the twin transition. Schools must adapt to the impacts of climate change on education, such as adjusting schedules during heatwaves and leveraging digital tools for emergency remote teaching during school closures. Ensuring that schools remain human-centric environments is essential as well, with initiatives like team-building events and stress-reduction practices fostering a supportive community. Efficient transportation planning, including promoting green commuting options and leveraging public transport for productive time, can reduce the carbon footprint of schools. Maximising the benefits of weekends and holidays involves protecting teachers’ disconnection time, regulating email use, and prioritising rest and professional development. By implementing these strategies, schools can enhance teacher well-being, improve job satisfaction, and support the sustainable integration of digital and green initiatives into education.
