For example, every talk is built around real classroom challenges, from exam stress and social media overload to motivation slumps, and translated into simple habits students can use straight away. As a result, when your school books a guest speaker for high schools through the HopeFULL Institute, you can trust the content reflects current research on adolescent mental health, including the priorities set out in the Student Wellbeing Framework. In addition, since 1998 our team has partnered with schools right across the country to make wellbeing practical rather than theoretical.
