PARKMORE PRIMARY SCHOOL

PARKMORE PRIMARY SCHOOL
Forest Hill, VIC

Parkmore is reaping the benefits on student learning of having embedded positive psychology within the school. Students are achieving academically at a much higher level and Parkmore has been identified as a school with outstanding relative growth in recent NAPLAN results. Also recently, Parkmore has provided support to a local high school, helping them to establish their own positive psychology program. Principal Saraid Doherty and wellbeing team leader Adrienne Baucke presented at the Positive Education Schools Association Conference in Sydney this year, discussing the multi-faceted approach to teaching positive education at Parkmore. The two are also set to present at the Fifth World Congress of the International Positive Psychology Association Conference in Montreal.
