Every generation faces challenges, but never before have young
people been so aware of theirs. Whether due to school strikes for
climate change, civil war, or pandemic lockdowns, almost every
child in the world has experienced the interruption of their
schooling by outside forces. When the world we have taken for
granted proves so unstable, it gives rise to the question: what is
schooling for? Thrive advocates a new purpose for education, in a
rapidly changing world, and analyses the reasons why change is
urgently needed in our education systems. The book identifies four
levels of thriving: global - our place in the planet; societal -
localities, communities, economies; interpersonal - our
relationships; intrapersonal - the self. Chapters provide
research-based theoretical evidence for each area, followed by
practical international case studies showing how individual schools
are addressing these considerable challenges. Humanity's challenges
are shifting fast: schools need to be a part of the response.
