Raising Resilient Children cover

A must-read for every parent, carer and educator as school refusal, mental health struggles and social challenges continue to rise. Trailblazing teacher Gavin McCormack’s transformative 7-step program helps children build resilience and thrive beyond traditional measures of success.

Gavin believes when children are given independence, the right tools, and the encouragement to build on their strengths, their potential is limitless. His ground-breaking guide redefines what it means to receive a ‘good education’ by highlighting the power of modelling positive behaviour and prioritising essential life skills over academic scores. Drawing on the latest neuroscience of learning and years of teaching experience in mainstream and Montessori schools, he offers practical strategies that will help children navigate life's challenges, learn with passion and grow into capable, confident and compassionate human beings.
 

'This book was like a huge breath of fresh air. From the first page I knew I was reading some deep and profound wisdom that understood what education is truly meant to be. It explores my passion that education is about "people making" and not about grades. Gavin McCormack is a huge light, showing us where schooling and education needs to be focused and how we can inspire todays' kids to make the world a better place. Everyone needs to read this book.' -- Maggie Dent, parenting author, educator and podcaster
