PESA Digital PD - Using Wellbeing Measurement to Inform Wellbeing Education

Using Wellbeing Measurement to Inform Wellbeing Education

Evidence Informed Practice, Relevance and Sustainable Success

Presented by Jacqui Moses, Positive Education Collaborator, Geelong Grammar School

Educators are accustomed to using data to inform best practice teaching and learning. We analyse understanding, misconceptions, and errors to shape instruction and ensure that lessons are meaningful, relevant, and impactful. Wellbeing education deserves the same level of intentionality. By using wellbeing measurement as a pedagogical tool, educators can better understand student experiences, identify emerging needs, and design learning that is proactive and responsive, as well as engaging and grounded in evidence.

This webinar explores how wellbeing data can guide a thematic approach to Wellbeing/ Positive Education, informed by the principles of positive psychology. Participants will examine how measurement develops evidence informed teaching practices, deepens student engagement, enhances relevance, and strengthens visibility and shared language across staff. The session also highlights how data informed planning contributes to sustainable success across a term, a year, and beyond.

Format: Interactive workshop · Suitable for: All staff
