​

Join psychologist Phil Slade and school leader Annabelle Kent for an evidence-based session on transforming school mental health approaches. Discover how schools moved from crisis response to proactive wellbeing support - and how you can too. 

​

Transform Your School’s Approach to Student Wellbeing
This session offers evidence-based insights drawn from research involving hundreds of schools. It highlights the effectiveness of systematic, preventative approaches to student wellbeing, showing how these consistently outperform reactive strategies. Participants will explore what truly works in diverse educational settings and why early intervention is key.

​

From Theory to Practice
Attendees will gain practical strategies for implementing wellbeing initiatives within existing school structures. Real-world examples, including a case study of a school that achieved measurable change, will illustrate how to shift from crisis management to proactive support. The session also covers how to navigate common constraints and provides tools to build a sustainable, data-informed wellbeing system. Outcomes include reduced behavioural incidents, improved teacher confidence, and stronger school culture and community ties.
