Teaching Happiness and Well-being in Schools by Ian Morris

This book provides an introduction to the theory of positive psychology and a practical guide on how to implement the theory in (primarily secondary) schools. There has recently been an explosion of interest in positive psychology and the teaching of well-being and 'happiness' in PSHE in schools and many teachers are looking for clear information on how to implement these potentially life-changing ideas in the classroom. Wellington College, where Ian Morris is head of philosophy, religion and PSHE, is among the first UK schools to introduce a formal well-being and happiness curriculum developed by the author.
Ian Morris, FRSA, is Head of Philosophy and Religion and PSHE at Wellington College, Berkshire and has been a teacher for 7 years. He is a member of the Institute for Positive Psychology and a member of the WISE committee led by Lord Layard. He is also a visiting speaker on the Masters Degree in Applied Positive Psychology at the University of East London.
