5 Teacher Well-Being It is well acknowledged that teachers are the most important in-school factor contributing to student success, satisfaction and achievement, and that teacher wellbeing is deeply connected to the quality of their work (CESE, 2014). Teacher wellbeing is therefore of critical importance for the future of education. esearch/teacher%20wellbeing%20a%20review%20of%20the%20literature%20- %20%20F
6 Reflection: Understanding Well-Being What are your views of well-being and its components? What contributes to your well-being? Is well-being the same as happiness?
7 Feedback
8 2. Understanding Well-Being Barry and Friedli, 2008
9 2. Understanding Well-Being A state of Well-Being in which the individual realises his or her own abilities; can cope with the normal stresses of life; can work productively and fruitfully and is able to make a contribution to his or her own community (WHO, 2001) Guidelines for Mental Health Promotion; Well-Being in Primary Schools DES 2015.
10 2. Understanding Well-Being Weaving Well-Being - definition for children Well-being means feeling good and strong in our minds and bodies, having energy, getting along with and helping others, knowing our strengths and feeling proud because we are doing our best. It means we can cope with the little problems and disappointments of life. It means enjoying life, being grateful for what we have and accepting ourselves just as we are. Weaving Well-Being all programmes
11 2. Understanding Well-Being Two part approach Whole School Culture of Well-Being Teaching children evidence-based skills and strategies and embedding them in day to day life (Weare & Nind, 2011)
12 3. Why Focus on Well-being in Schools? The first aim of the SPHE curriculum is to promote the personal development and wellbeing of the child -SPHE Curriculum, p.9
13 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Emotional well-being in childhood is the strongest childhood predictor of a successful and satisfying life in adulthood, with the child s intellectual development being the weakest predictor. (Layard, Clark, Cornaglia & Vernoit, 2014). Implications for the Educational System?
14 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Emotional well-being is also the strongest predictor of a successful and satisfying life in adulthood More powerful a predictor than income, educational level, physical health, family status or employment (Layard, Clark, Cornaglia & Vernoit, 2014).
15 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Research also shows that well-being programmes are most effective when delivered by teachers themselves, as opposed to outside experts. (Durlak, Weissberg, Taylor, Dymnicki, & Schellinger, 2011).
16 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Child Well-Being Outcomes: Happy Children: Higher school achievement Success in a wide variety of life domains, including relationships and resilience Higher quality of school life (Waters, 2011; Karatzias, Power, Flemming, Lennan, & Swanson, 2002; Alexander, 2002).
17 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Happy Adults: Increased resilience Longer life Greater life satisfaction and fulfilment Greater contribution to others and society (Lyubomirsky, 2007)
18 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Worrying statistics: By age 13 years, 1 in 3 young people in Ireland is likely to have experienced some type of mental disorder. By the age of 24 years, that rate will have increased to over 1 in 2. Up to one third of young Irish adolescents and over one half of young Irish adults are at increased risk of mental ill-health into their adult years (Cannon, Coughlan, Clarke, Harley, & Kelleher, 2013).
19 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Reflection/ Discussion There is no general consensus on what the reasons may be for these worrying statistics, a number of factors may be involved Any thoughts on what these factors may be?
20 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Social media (leading to unfavourable social comparison) 2/3 of children said they wished it didn t exist 56% - on the edge of addiction (Digital Awareness UK, 2017) Unrealistic images of perfection in the media Increased pressures and choices for young people Technology/ digital age over exposure to disturbing news, no down time, over-stimulation
21 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Self-esteem movement: Linked to decreased resilience in children, as the emphasis on avoidance of negative feelings such as disappointment, means that children don t learn how to cope with them in a safe way. Authentic self-esteem is not bestowed on children, it is built through experience and dealing with challenges (Seligman, 2007; Storr, 2017)
22 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Parenting styles -trends towards parenting styles becoming more competitive and over-protective stressful for children Trend towards over-protection in schools - avoidance of disappointment
23 3. Why Focus on Well-Being in Schools? Promoting children s well-being in order to enhance their emotional and social competence is an important measure in the prevention of such disorders ( O Connell, Boat & Warner, 2009) Powerful role of teachers and schools! We can present an alternative message to that presented by popular culture and social media and empower children to understand and enhance their own mental health.
24 4. Positive Psychology Positive Psychology is the science and practice of improving well-being (Lomas, Hefferon, Ivtzan, 2014)
25 4. Positive Psychology Key Aspects: Positive Psychology is a relatively new branch of psychology. Founded by Prof Martin Seligman in Psychology up to that point was deficit-based Need for more focus and research on the components of mental well-being.
26 4. Positive Psychology Key Aspects: Science of well-being, personal growth and resilience. Identifying and developing personal strengths, as opposed to correcting deficits. Uses evidence-based activities to help people not only to cope, but to flourish Is also concerned factors which contribute to flourishing institutions, including schools, and a flourishing society Application to schools Positive Education
27 Positive Education Learn it. Live it. Teach it. Embed it. (Hoare, Bott, & Robinson, 2017).
28 4. Positive Psychology The aim of Positive Psychology is to catalyse a change in psychology from a preoccupation only with repairing the worst qualities of life to also building the best qualities in life. - Martin Seligman Positive Psychology aims to complement and not replace traditional psychology.
29 4. Positive Psychology Continuum of Mental Health
30 4. Positive Psychology Some misconceptions! It is not only about positive emotions and trying to be positive all the time! It is about valuing all emotions, negative and positive Dealing with emotions in a constructive way which enhances well-being purposeful emotions
31 4. Positive Psychology Seligman s PERMA Theory of Well-Being All of these components contribute to our well-being. Creating and maintaining our well-being is an active process unique to each individual.
32 4. Positive Psychology Nurturing our reservoirs of well-being is an active process which is unique to each individual
33 4. Positive Psychology How do we replenish our Reservoirs of Well-Being? Through Positive Psychology Interventions
34 4. Positive Psychology Positive Psychology Interventions: Intentional activities that aim to cultivate positive feelings, behaviours or cognitions (Sin & Lyubormirsky, 2009) Replenish our Reservoirs of Well-Being Validated and researched Do not have the same effect on everybody, Find ones which best fit the personality, lifestyle and interests
35 4. Positive Psychology Positive Psychology Interventions Well-being habits Examples - gratitude, mindfulness, physical activity, kindness, using character strengths, positive focus, flow activities, self-compassion, expressive writing, savouring. The Weaving Well-Being programme is based on PPIs
36 Focus: Positive Emotions Don t even start on your wellness routine unless there are positive emotions woven into it Barbara Fredrickson, President of International Positive Psychology Association
37 Focus: Positive Emotions Research shows that having a daily high level of Positive Emotions such as love, joy, pride, tranquillity, gratitude, awe, amusement, inspiration, hope and interest not only increases well-being, helps learning and creativity but also builds resilience! (Fredrickson et al., 2003 )
38 Positive Emotions Research: Ratio of a least 3: 1 of positive to negative emotions is needed for flourishing. (Diehl et al., 2011). It is the presence of daily positive emotions, rather than the absence of negative emotions, that is predictive of well-being. Thriving and resilient people have a high level of positive emotions daily, which buffers them against the effects of negative emotions. (Diener, Sandvik & Pavot, 1991).
39 Positive Emotions The presence of frequent positive emotions may be a stronger predictor of overall wellbeing in children than the experience of stressors (McCullough, Huebner, & Laughlin, 2000).
40 Activity: Live It! Everyone is busy these days, so much so that we can become too focused on our to do list. Prioritizing positivity means also having a to feel list and scheduling in time for activities that you know to be reliable elicitors of your own positive emotions. For me it s spending time with a friend, walking in nature, or creating a new recipe. Barbara Fredrickson Concept of self-generated Positive Emotions We are often not very accurate at predicting what will actually generate positivity for us! Bombarded with media messages from popular culture promising us happiness and well-being through material possessions, appearances, fame etc- not accurate at all!
41 Activity: To Feel List Now that we know that a regular diet of positive emotions is a necessity for our personal well-being, spend some time bringing your awareness to what exactly brings you joy, love, pride, inspiration, hope. Joy comes to us in momentsordinary moments. We risk missing out on joy when we get too busy chasing down the extraordinary. Brene Brown Make time to do some of these activities every day!
42 Positive Emotions Think of practical ways to boost positive emotions in your personal and professional life every day! love, joy, pride, tranquillity, gratitude, awe, amusement, inspiration, hope and interest Necessity rather than a luxury!
43 5. Overview of the Weaving Well-Being Programme Based on PPIs relevant to Seligman s PERMA theory, along with other relevant theories and concepts from Positive Psychology including growth mindset, selfefficacy and resilience.
