For example, feeling safe at school can significantly improve pupils’ personal wellbeing and learning outcomes, which is also highlighted by recent guidelines by the European Commission. Close home-school collaboration is also important to develop pupil self-esteem and strengths, especially for children in migrant families or children with special educational needs. Sport also plays a role in wellbeing by helping to reduces stress and anxiety and promote social inclusion.

To be able to support learners, caring for teachers’ wellbeing is crucial, as highlighted in this month’s expert article by Anastassios Matsopoulos (University of Crete). It’s also important to consider children’s digital wellbeing , but by fostering positive engagement and inclusion, pupils can feel empowered and safe in online environments. Find more examples of projects on emotional resilience and wellbeing in our practice article and learn about the power of creativity in learning for mental health in our tutorial.

Also, watch an interview with Arniika Kuusisto (University of Helsinki) on the development of worldview, values and resilience in early childhood, and recent webinar recordings on preventing cyberbullying, promoting outdoor education, and wellbeing for improved learning outcomes.
