A proposito di questo titolo

Conversations about learning, wellbeing, and the teenage years. Adolescents & Education explores how we support young people through the teenage years emotionally, intellectually, and developmentally. Drawing on experience across traditional education, alternative provision, home ed, and pastoral care, each episode considers what adolescents actually need in order to learn, and where our current education systems often miss the mark. These are conversations about learning and mental health, academic rigour and psychological safety, structure and autonomy, all grounded in real practice.Heather Philp, PhD
