Launceston Grammar's wellbeing framework has been developed as the foundation of our commitment to creating a positive wellbeing culture at the School. This culture informs many of our practices such as how we teach, plan, interact and conduct business.
The wellbeing framework is underpinned by five 'drivers': Agency, purpose, connection, thinking and engagement. These drivers are the guiding principles that empower students to take ownership of their learning journey (agency), discover their intrinsic motivations and aspirations (purpose), foster meaningful relationships with the School community and beyond (connection), cultivate critical and creative thinking skills (thinking) and actively participate in immersive learning experiences (engagement).
Schools play a vital role in promoting the intellectual, physical, social, emotional, moral, spiritual and aesthetic development and wellbeing of young Australians...schools share this responsibility with students, parents, carers, families, the community, business and other education and training providers.
