Rethinking Curriculum – Creating the Happiest, Healthiest Schools in the World
Well Schools is a movement of schools and trusts taking positive action to improve education outcomes by supporting the health and happiness of their staff and pupils. A Well School still has high expectations, but places just as much emphasis on health and wellbeing as it does on academic performance. It understands that children and young people are more effective learners when they are happy and healthy, and that staff are better educators when they are genuinely supported.
Hear how the approach can improve outcomes and achievement in your school and create a happy, healthy culture for your staff and pupils. Listen to colleagues who have delivered the Well School approach and understand how to get involved and the support available to you.
This webinar comes to you as part of the Rethinking Curriculum webinar series. The project aims to support and equip teachers and school leaders with the knowledge and skills to identify, plan and implement curriculum development work in a sustainable, creative and place-based approach. This will mean that all pupils will have access to an expansive, inspiring curriculum that connects them with local communities and enables them to lead healthy, fulfilled lives.
