Children's Social and Emotional Wellbeing in Schools: A Critical Perspective

Many theories of children’s well-being reduce the task of nurturing it to checking items off an objective list. Offering a more complex and nuanced view of the concept, Debbie Watson, Carl Emery, and Phil Bayliss argue here that well-being should be understood at the level of the subjective child and that schools should foster well-being by promoting positive relationships and greater inclusivity. Shedding new light on this critical but often taken-for-granted topic, Children’s Social and Emotional Wellbeing in Schools holds important lessons for policymakers, practitioners, students, and researchers.
