This truly accessible resource shows secondary school practitioners how to help make every child and young person feel like they really matter when they are in school, so they can develop confidence, resilience, love of learning, a positive sense of self and healthy relationships.
Sue Roffey shows how to create a learning environment where all pupils can thrive and make progress in learning, and where wellbeing for everyone is at the heart of every school. By using the unique evidence-based ASPIRE principles of Agency, Safety, Positivity, Inclusion, Respect and Equity in practice, this insightful book shows teachers how to redress the balance in ways that maximise a love for learning, build a positive sense of self, construct healthy relationships, foster resilience and help young people make good choices. This resource features a chapter for each principle which explores what this means, why it matters and how it can be applied across secondary schools. Although visionary, the book is based on both substantial evidence and good practice, with each chapter supported by case-studies across the world.
The book demonstrates the positive difference each principle makes to children in secondary school settings as well as teachers, parents and the overall community. It is a must-read for secondary school teachers, tutors, school leaders, psychologists, parents and anyone who wants an education system that is inclusive, holistic and effective for all students.
