Abstract

The article discusses the Penn Resiliency positive psychology programme led by twenty two state schools in Great Britain. It offers the insight of educational philosopher Judith Suissa, who claims that happiness and well-being resilience cannot easily be translated into education because one cannot conclude on how someone should live their lives. Kim Bristow also states that though resilience lessons are not about happiness, it is successful if it makes one happy or optimistic.
