"There is no more important theme in schools at present than that of the well-being of our communities. Sir Anthony Seldon highlights the growing crisis of mental health in our classrooms, common rooms and amongst our parent bodies. This seminal conference aims to enlighten and inform Principals, Heads and everyone involved in the leadership of schools in both Well-Being and Mindfulness. It seeks to expand on the problems faced and review the growing body of evidence which exemplifies the crisis. At the same time, world renowned speakers and practitioners will give their collective advice as to how the looming crisis can be averted."
