Description
Implementing Mindfulness in Schools provides practical, evidence-based guidance on developing mindfulness in schools and the wider community that works and learns there. This guide aims to bring clarity to an area of education that is growing rapidly, with promising evidence and enthusiasm from schools, but can be confusing and riddled with misunderstandings.
The guidance is based on international scientific evidence, empirical research, and expert advice from innovators, programme developers, researchers, academics, and contemplative practitioners. It is designed for a range of audiences, including those working in UK education systems, programme makers, and those working in related areas such as compassion, mental health, and emotional education.
With a specifically UK focus, this guide offers practical advice and application relevant to schools and the wider community. It provides a valuable resource for those looking to explore the potential of mindfulness in schools and make them more humane and effective places.
