This event followed on from the Social and Emotional Wellbeing Event held in April 2016.

There were from mindfulness practitioners and teachers who spoke about their experiences of delivering mindfulness programmes in schools and colleges (to both staff and students), how to use mindfulness skills to enhance well-being as teachers and/or lecturer and a workshop with a yoga teacher on mindful movement.

It is hoped there will be a World Café event early next academic year focusing on the potential of mindfulness in helping us close the attainment gap.
