PEEC (Positive Education Enhanced Curriculum) is a research-based, developmentally sequenced Positive Education curriculum designed for students from Early Learning (age four) through to Year 12 (age 18). Drawing on over a decade of Positive Education experience at Geelong Grammar School (GGS) and in consultation with world-renowned positive psychology researchers, PEEC provides a structured approach to wellbeing education.
This curriculum was successfully piloted across all GGS campuses and in schools both nationally and internationally, and has now been used in hundreds of schools around the globe.
PEEC is not intended to replace the everyday Positive Education that occurs through pastoral care, coaching, and teacher-student interactions. Instead, it offers an explicit curriculum for schools to conduct dedicated Positive Education classes. In these classes, students are taught key wellbeing concepts to help them lead healthy and fulfilling lives.
The lessons within PEEC are well-researched and designed to create a safe and nurturing environment where students can thrive. Recognising the unique dynamics of each classroom, PEEC encourages teachers to tailor the lessons to meet their students’ specific needs. Therefore, the lessons are not scripted and do not include suggested times, allowing for flexibility and customisation.
PEEC is a comprehensive and adaptable Positive Education curriculum that supports schools in fostering student wellbeing through structured yet flexible lessons. By incorporating relevant research and practical experience, PEEC empowers educators to create environments where students can flourish both academically and personally.
