The Thriving Schools project has successfully completed its latest cycle of training activities for participating schools in Cyprus, marking an important milestone in promoting wellbeing across school communities.
The training programme included a series of targeted online sessions designed to support both educators and parents/guardians in fostering a culture of wellbeing at school and at home.
Two interactive webinars for parents and guardians focused on the theme “Mental Health and Wellbeing at Home” (3 March and 21 April 2026). Delivered in collaboration with CARDET and the Institute of Development, these sessions aimed to empower families to apply key principles of Positive Psychology in everyday life and strengthen wellbeing within the home environment.
In parallel, two webinars were delivered for educators, focusing on strengthening teacher wellbeing through the PERMA model. The first session (17 February 2026) introduced practical strategies to support emotional balance and daily engagement. The second session (16 March 2026) explored ways to build resilience, recognize everyday achievements, and reconnect with professional purpose.
These activities form part of a broader whole-school approach adopted by the Thriving Schools project, which supports teachers, students, and families in creating positive, inclusive, and emotionally supportive learning environments.
Investing in the wellbeing of educators and families alike, the project continues to contribute to stronger school communities where both teaching and learning can thrive.
