Unique personality insights approach
The ‘Self/Friends’ personality insights framework at its heart makes Persona Life Skills unique. Intentionally practical and memorable, it was designed specially for young people, with R&D funding from the UK government and Google.
Through Self Insights and Friends Insights the Persona thinking framework helps students understand that everyone has their own mix of personality styles influencing how they think, communicate and behave in different situations – and this can change over time, especially when you are young.
Our technology-enhanced curriculum guides students in using the framework to develop their social-emotional skills. They learn how to adapt to life challenges in Social, Learning and Work contexts, boosting their wellbeing and employability, while supporting academic achievement.
