Key concepts covered: This Professional Development is designed to guide schools through some of the contemporary research and practice about student performance. The work centres around three factors that enable students to become their best. It will also share useful ways of applying the concepts of growth mindset, grit and wellbeing, to help students THRIVE. The presentation outlines relevant research through stories, shares case studies of schools who have taken action and made an impact, and gives real life examples and practical take aways from Peter McAuliffe’s experience working with over 150,000 student staff and parents and as Head of team At Unleashing Personal Potential. This workshop is an awesome opportunity to learn, reflect, grow, share and take action on helping students THRIVE.
