Nurturing Resilience in Education

Abstract

It is well-established that schools should cultivate not only cognitive skills but also skills that help individuals cope with life's challenges. An integrated approach is necessary in the attempt to promote resilience in both students and teachers. For children, the focus is on putting evidence-based strategies into practice that support their emotional health in addition to academic difficulties. It is also crucial to prioritize the psychological resilience of teachers since their role involves a great deal of complexity, which often makes them susceptible to stress and burnout. It has been proven that when teachers are in a state of well-being, it not only enhances their own performance and ability to fulfill their role but also has a direct impact on the well-being and academic performance of their students. Educational institutions can foster an environment that prioritizes the mental well-being of all stakeholders and fosters academic success by attending to the unique requirements of each group.
