Mental health is essential to our overall well-being and as important as physical health. When we feel mentally well, we can work productively, enjoy our free time, and contribute actively to our communities.

This page provides resources to help you keep mentally healthy and to reduce stress. We hope you will find them useful. In cases of mental distress, the first step is to talk to someone you trust. If you feel you need it, seek help from a professional.

In this episode of IB Voices, we are joined by Katherine Dix and Shani Sniedze-Gregory, the authors of "The impact of the IB Primary Years
Programme (PYP) on student wellbeing and other related social-emotional learning outcomes," to learn more about the research study and what we can glean from it as educators and parents.

Show Notes

This study investigated the impact of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP) on student well-being and related social-emotional outcomes. The mixed-method study involved three phases: a literature review and review of PYP documentation with regard to well-being; a retrospective comparative analysis of PYP and similar non-PYP schools; and surveys of PYP teachers and students. The study found the PYP curriculum and programmatic elements to be imbued with activities and practices that promote well-being. PYP students also demonstrated consistently higher levels of well-being compared with similar non-PYP students. Additionally, PYP schools with strong implementation showed a more positive school climate and higher levels of teacher engagement, student participation and student well-being outcomes attributable to the PYP. These findings offer substantial evidence that the PYP encourages student well-being above and beyond other well-being activities promoted in schools. Learn more here.
