Positive Education as a subject. Where’s the curriculum?
Kim Bence, Anne Johnstone, Kate Barbat, Ravenswood

The term ‘positive education’ can mean many things in different educational contexts. In some schools, it is a holistic approach, in others, the term is used to describe interventions, programs or day to day practices. Whatever your approach or whatever the stage of your school’s journey, the decision to teach the skills of wellbeing through positive education curriculum can be a daunting challenge. Where do you start? What do you teach? How do you teach it? Where is the curriculum? At Ravenswood, we teach positive education from Kindergarten to Year 10 using an evidence-based curriculum that teachers the skills of wellbeing so that our students can lead flourishing lives. Come and join us on an experiential journey as we share our experience of how we strategically plan, design, implement and evaluate our positive education curriculum.
