Positive Education

Positive Education is about helping educational communities to flourish – from early childhood through to tertiary education. Our programs bring together wellbeing and education, to have a positive impact on our wider society.

Rethinking education.

Positive Education helps us to explore the possibilities of education and empowers students, teachers and the community, with the knowledge and resources to live a happy and purposeful life.

It means rethinking education and redefining success, recognising the benefit of helping whole school communities to flourish and develop in a holistic way, beyond purely focusing on academic excellence.

By considering the importance of wellbeing, mindset and attitude, we can proactively respond to the increase in mental illness and stress amongst children and young people today.

Positive Psychology in Education

Positive Psychology in Education is used to help whole school communities discover their strengths and purpose in life.

It takes what we know from Positive Psychology, and applies this to education, to bring out the best in all students, teachers, parents and the extended community.

If you’re looking for new ways to build wellbeing and resilience in your school or education organisation, Positive Education is an evidence-based approach to encouraging and empowering your people.

At The Positivity Institute, we’re leaders in the field of Positive Education, and believe in taking a proactive rather than reactive approach to the mental wellbeing within the whole school community.

We take a bespoke approach to every engagement with have, and will collaborate with you to identify the specific needs of your school.

Our programs are tailored to meet your needs, and we’ll work with you to design a program which brings the best possible benefits to your students and staff.

We base our programs on:

• The RAW Model of Flourishing – looking at resilience, achievement and wellbeing.
• The 6M Foundations of Flourishing – looking at 6 pathways to wellbeing for a flourishing life.

Let’s work together to help your students and staff connect with their best selves.
