Move over Pythagoras, there’s a new equation in town…

Happy Adults = Happy Children

Now, before you panic and hide in the stationery cupboard, we're not saying adults have to slap on a smile all the time - that's not realistic! But we can help you understand ways to quickly and easily improve their mood and feel better, both psychologically and physiologically. Good for you, great for the kids.

So, what is realistic happiness? Is it getting through a whole set of printing without a paper jam? Or being the first to commandeer the kettle at break time?

Well, our own research has identified 6 happiness themes:

• Achievement and Success
• Self-confidence
• Coping skills
• Positive Relationships
• Support
• Inclusion

By helping your team to better understand and apply these in their classrooms, you will create a happy-centred school where everyone flourishes.

Here’s what you can expect

• An understanding of the psychology of happiness, motivation and learning
• A bit of neuroscience – so you understand what makes people happy and how this impacts on the brain
• What a Happy-Centred School (HCS) is, in terms of productivity, satisfaction levels and results
• How to use Laughology’s HCS themes and resources in your school

What you’ll get by the end

• People who understand that they can improve teaching and learning and raise academic standards, by promoting happiness as a learning tool
• Ideas to aid self-confidence, achievement and success.
• Techniques for promoting resilience and coping skills in children and adults.
