Description
Contextual wellbeing is a state of health, happiness, and positive engagement that arises from membership of an equitable, inclusive, and cohesive school environment. This approach to supporting young people's wellbeing challenges traditional methods of helping students who are struggling, instead focusing on creating a healthier environment for them to thrive. Happiness and success are not solely individual pursuits or responsibilities, but rather develop from the ongoing creation of healthy connections to others and the world around us. By prioritising the social environment that supports and nurtures young people, we can foster a positive state of wellbeing that enables them to flourish in school. In this book, Helen Street introduces a definition that underpins an alternative way of supporting young people and delivering education, one that explicitly prioritises wellbeing as a fundamental aspect of creating a good school.
