I was very excited to discover the International Positive Education Network and the Manifesto for Positive Education.
Positive education challenges the current paradigm of education, which values academic attainment above all other goals. Drawing on classical ideals, we believe that the DNA of education is a double helix with intertwined strands of equal importance – academics + character & well-being.
We need to change the way young people are educated, which is why I just signed the Manifesto for Positive Education. I urge you to do the same and share this with your peers.
