What the book is about
For Flourishing's Sake will take a thematic look at whole school positive education, with each chapter exploring a theme, or an aspect, of positive education that contributes to a whole school approach. For the purposes of the book, positive education includes character education and looks at positive education as including a focus on well-being and character alongside academic achievement. Each contribution feeds 'snippets' into each of the chapters of the book, to provide readers with an uplifting, enriching experience and the hope, desire and inspiration to do more in their own schools to improve well-being (not just of pupils).
The target readership is school leaders, well-being leads, teachers, school governors etc who want to learn more about positive education and how they can bring a whole school approach into their school. The aim is to provide them with a bit of theory/background and research evidence, supported by lots of examples/case studies/uplifting stories from my interviews & e-mail contributions, to show the impact of this work, give them inspiration and drive them to put the work in to achieve similar successes in their schools.
