ASPIRE to Wellbeing and Learning for All in Early Years and Primary: The Principles Underpinning Positive Education
Autor Sue Roffeyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 iun 2024
Sue Roffey presents a visionary and unique approach to education underpinned by clear principles that can be practically applied in all settings. It is aligned with healthy child development, and addresses what all children need if they are to learn and thrive, including those who experience difficulties and disadvantages. She envisages an education system fit for purpose where all pupils can thrive and make progress in learning, where wellbeing for everyone is at the heart of every school. She uses ASPIRE as an acronym for Agency, Safety, Positivity, Inclusion, Respect and Equity. These principles, when threaded through everything that happens in a school, can genuinely enhance both wellbeing and learning. This resource features a chapter for each principle which explores what this means, why it matters and how it can be applied in early years, primary classrooms and across primary schools. Although visionary, the book is based on both substantial evidence and good practice, with each chapter supported by case studies from across the world.
The book demonstrates the positive difference each principle makes to children in primary school settings as well as teachers, parents and the overall community. It is a must-read for primary school teachers, tutors, school leaders, psychologists, parents and anyone who wants an education system that is inclusive, holistic and effective for all students.

Recenzii
"Sue Roffey has written an essential book for educators across the globe. The ASPIRE principles encompass foundational pillars for the promotion of learning and well-being for all children and youth. This is a user-friendly volume with many practical applications. Teachers and educational administrators around the world will benefit greatly from the wisdom in these pages. I highly recommend it to educators, parents, psychologists, counsellors, and anyone interested in flourishing and the creation of a just and vibrant society."
Isaac Prilleltensky, Professor, PhD, University of Miami
"As Sue Roffey articulates so intelligently, passionately and clearly, wellbeing is both complex and contextual. This book provides a comprehensive and clear framework for considering how best to grow contextual wellbeing across your whole school using her well established ASPIRE principles. A fabulous foundation for whole-school development, and a much-needed voice for wellbeing equity."
Helen Street, Founder of Contextual Wellbeing and Positive Schools, Honorary Fellow, The University of Western Australia
"This excellent book shows how to enable pupils to flourish in school now and how we can help all to thrive in future. The ASPIRE principles build social justice. I highly recommend it."
Anthony Seldon, Co-chair of the Times Education Commission Report: Bringing out the Best
"Wellbeing is not merely a means to an end. It is the end goal we all aspire to, and how ultimately, we measure the success of our lives. Dr Sue Roffey’s ASPIRE books provide a pathway for schools to build wellbeing for all - students, educators, and community. Dr Roffey illustrates how the ASPIRE principles can underpin the values of a school, inform and drive policy, practice and structure, and guide teacher-student relationships. This work is pro-active, comprehensive and universal and aims at nothing less than a revitalisation of education."
Denise Quinlan, Director of the New Zealand Institute of Wellbeing and Resilience
"I have no hesitation in recommending this book to all educators - wellbeing and learning must be a focus for us all if we are to build successful schools and more importantly successful families of the future. Sue's ASPIRE framework provides us with a clear structure to frame our thinking."
Maureen McKenna, Former Executive Director of Education, City of Glasgow
"For true educational change we need to know to what we aspire. Drawing from both her rich experience and the best educational science, Roffey points us toward educational contexts in which students want to learn. She points us beyond a narrow focus on cognitive achievement, to the kind of schools where human development, intellectual, social, and emotional, is the goal. Beyond piecemeal reform she describes cultures of education where both students and teachers can flourish. This is a book that can truly lead the way of positive school change."
Richard M. Ryan, Professor, Institute for Positive Psychology and Education, Australian Catholic University, North Sydney and Distinguished Professor, College of Education, Ewha Womans University, South Korea
"There has been some talk post pandemic of doing things differently in schools and not just returning to default settings in search of a more rewarding and compelling school vision for educators and students. This (Sue’s) inspiring and thoughtful book provides the narrative for this work. It poses the question, does the education system as we know it meet the needs of learners and educators or is there another way? A way which provides the skills that employers want, the happiness that parents seek for their children and a way of teaching and learning which helps to retain and recruit those who work in our schools. Joining the conversation and Sue’s book (IT) covers key aspects of what an education system fit for the 21st century must include.”
Andy Mellor, National Wellbeing Director for Schools Advisory Service, National Association of Head Teachers National President 18/19, Strategic Lead for Carnegie centre of excellence for mental health in schools.
"Sue’s aspirations and vision for a truly inclusive, critical, and hopeful approach to education is one that is sorely needed. Sue’s work guides schools, educators, and psychologists to see wellbeing as something to be actively pursued and cultivated, rather than just the absence of mental ill-health. The realisation of the ASPIRE principles would mark a systems change in how we ‘do’ education."
Dan O’Hare, Educational Psychologist, Senior Lecturer, University of Bristol and founder of edpsy.org.uk
“As educators and educational leaders, we continually seek pathways to profoundly impact generations of learners. Dr Roffey's work is a vital contribution to this journey, offering both inspiration and practical strategies for creating educational environments where every child can flourish. This book presents a transformative vision for education, deeply resonating with the Global Citizenship Foundation's mandate to transform education for human and planetary flourishing. I hope this essential resource reaches practitioners and policymakers committed to nurturing inclusive, sustainable, and equitable environments where every child can realize their full potential and flourish.”
Aaryan Salman, Director-General, Global Citizenship Foundation, India
“As we enter a more and more tumultuous century, we and our children will have to master social/political and climate challenges as well as disinformation. Sue Roffey, in her passionately argued and practical book shows us the way. Based on her vast experience in positive education, she describes how children, educators and larger society may achieve greater wellbeing and resilience through a shared learning environment. In her ASPIRE program, she elaborates the basic elements for transforming today’s education systems, and indeed our lives, into one that allows the development of thriving children. An important read!”
Marten W. de Vries, Emeritus Professor, Social Psychiatry and Public Mental Health, Maastricht University, Netherlands; Chair, Mind Venture International Institute; Knighted in the Order of the Dutch Lion
"Sue Roffey is a force of nature and this book is everything you would expect: intelligent, insightful and driven by a burning sense of social justice. The question of what education is too often overlooked. The consequences are clear: the wellbeing of educators, as well as children and young people, is not in good shape. Research-informed, humane and practical, the ASPIRE model is the antidote we so badly need. Despite the name, this is not aspirational stuff. It is urgent reading that should rocket to the top of every educator’s reading pile. Grab it with both hands and implement it in your schools. Your colleagues, pupils and their families will thank you for it for many years to come."
