Workshop Information:

This workshop will share some key research on student wellbeing, highlighting global trends that should cause concern. 

We will discuss what we are currently experiencing in our own schools and what might be causing the shifts we see.  

We will examine some real school wellbeing data, and share ways that schools have begun to reverse these trends, prioritising student voice, emotional resilience, and self-direction.
