This book offers practitioners working with 11 to 14 year olds a highly practical education resource for running personal well-being lessons, backed up by scientific research from the field of positive psychology.
The book is divided into six subject headings, with six lessons offered per subject area. This will allow you to run a programme with between 6 to 36 lessons. The six core concepts within positive psychology for youngpeople are: Positive Self, Positive Body, Positive Emotions, Positive Mindsets, Positive Direction and Positive Relationships. The authorsensure that the lessons are easy to understand, to lead and to manage by ensuring each lesson contains:
- A suggested 60 minute outline lesson plan
- The main body or the 'how-to' of running the lesson
- Suggested homework where appropriate
- Academic references and resources
"Boniwell and Ryan provide an excellent synopsis of the current state of wellbeing literature focusing on evidence-based studies and how these link into contemporary public policy. This underpins the work that Boniwell and Ryan have done to ensure that the 'hands-on' methodology outlined throughout the text is underscored by science that highlights the importance of each exercise."
Dr Mathew A White, Director, Wellbeing & Positive Education, St Peter's College, Australia and Fellow, Melbourne Graduate School of Education, University of Melbourne, Australia
"This book is a much welcomed addition to the field of student well-being. This book is an asset to any teacher who believes in 'whole-student' learning."

Given the importance of student well-being, and their emotional, social and personal development, as well as their basic happiness, this book would be valuable for every Secondary School and Academy."
Professor Irvine S. Gersch, University of East London, UK
