““Our College has worked with UPP for three years. We have found the Thrive resources (unlike many brought in products) actually work in developing the students understanding of the topics of Growth Mindsets, Grit and Well-being. The sequential planning of each topic, all chunked into short interactive lessons able to be taught in a form period have not only helped staff articulate these key skills but enabled the students to engage through the Learn it, Live it, Teach It, Embed it model and make these skills part of their daily routines. This is a great investment for any College looking to promote SEL as part of the workings of their institution.” ”
““The THRIVE resources are a wonderful introduction to vital concepts such as growth mindset, grit and wellbeing. The resources are easy to access and the teachers find them very dynamic and easy to interact with. The feedback from our students has been extremely positive. The support that Luke and his team have provided in terms of implementation of the resources is also seconded only by the enthusiasm and passion that they have for educating students in the field of positive psychology.””
