Positive Education - Building resilience & mental toughness in young people

Positive Education - Building resilience & mental toughness in young people We are a leading global education consultancy founded by Gilda Scarfe Ph.D. in 2014.

Our team consists of coaches, facilitators, educators, researchers and psychologists, all with a passion for fostering wellbeing, mental toughness and resilience. Inspired by positive psychology, we focus on several character strengths: grit, zest, self-control, optimism, gratitude, social intelligence and curiosity together with the mental toughness domains: commitment, control, challenge and confidence

We offer a range of evidence based bespoke resources/programmes and training for both Primary and Secondary School students and teachers to support Positive Education and Student Wellbeing with a focus on building healthy, positive and mentally tough students. We promote character strengths and wellbeing in schools and communities.We advocate for a greater recognition of strength based education and wellbeing and we actively promote strategies that close the gap between formal and non-formal education. Character education is a complex mental and ethical trait modeling a person's life and we believe that positive education should be intentional, organized and planned rather than reactive.

How do you show gratitude to the people that matter most to you?

Cultivating gratitude doesn't cost any money and it certainly doesn't take much time, but the benefits are enormous. Research reveals gratitude can have the following benefits: enhances empathy, promotes good physical and psychological health, improves mental strengths, creates positive relationships.
