Wellbeing is Visible *Everywhere* at ISWA

Anyone who has been on the ISWA campus this month will have been struck by the extent to which wellbeing has been visible.   

All new teachers and students have been introduced to the S.E.A.R.C.H Pathways which are at the core of our Visible Wellbeing programme.  These also reflect our beliefs about how to ensure our school ethos, systems and daily life foster a culture where emotional, psychological and social states are prioritised, hand in glove with our inquiry driven curriculum.  With a seamless transition, not only into this academic year but into different stages of learning, adaptation has been unbelievably quick for many in our community.  They’ve navigated a new city, school, culture, environment and language. We are understandably proud of our multicultural demographic and richer for the contribution made by them all. 

The evidence is clear.  Wellbeing isn’t a single initiative, event or lesson.  It’s about positive relationships built upon trust and care, the commitment we all have to learn, contribute and to never take for granted the opportunities which embody all that we’re so grateful to have. 

 Here are just a few examples from this first month which demonstrate the wellbeing which is visible:
