HAPPY SCHOOL- A PSYCHOLOGICAL APPROACH for WELL BEING of STUDENTS-ANTALYA
Positive Education is a response to the gap between what people want for their children and what schools teach. That is, most parents want their children to be happy, healthy, and confident, but schools only focus on achievement, discipline, and academic skills. These are of course important, but so are positive mental health outcomes.
