Positive Education integrates the core principles of Positive Psychology with the evidence-informed structures, practices and programs that have been shown to enhance wellbeing and academic achievement.

  • It is a whole school, teacher-led, student-centred approach which aims to support all members of a school community to succeed and prosper.

  • It is underpinned by Positive Psychology (Seligman & Peterson) and Cognitive Behavioural Theory (Aaron Beck) or evidence-based pedagogy based on understanding that how you think affects how you feel, which influences how you behave.
