The overall aim is to contribute to the quality of education in primary schools by developing a holistic approach to well-being. The project team's expertise in health, well-being and learning, through extensive international collaboration and supported by the perspectives of participating students, will be used to develop knowledge, practices and tools for school staff in their work to promote well-being in schools. The results of the project will be disseminated and tested in a wide range of schools beyond those directly involved in the project team.
