Often, we assume that those we’re speaking to share our belief in wellbeing as a key role for schools, and are equipped with the knowledge, skills and resources necessary to spread this message in their communities. This webinar will speak to the latest evidence on the value and importance of focusing on social and emotional
wellbeing in schools, as well as share tools and strategies for how to best communicate this information in your school community.
