Persona Life Skills is the only personal development platform with personality insights at its heart, where students age 11-19 develop social-emotional skills to boost wellbeing, academic and employability outcomes. 

As the year draws to a close, it’s a perfect time to reflect on the strength and growth we've nurtured throughout the months. At Persona Life Skills, Resilience lies at the heart of our teaching and learning, preparing students to face the challenges of 2024 and beyond.

Resilience isn't just about enduring difficulties; it's about learning, adapting, and emerging stronger. Through essential life skills—Perseverance, Self-confidence, and Staying Positive—we empower students to keep striving, believe in themselves, and maintain hope even when the going gets tough.

In today’s world, with 59% of young people experiencing climate change anxiety according to The Lancet, these skills are more important than ever. They help young people approach challenges with a growth mindset, recover from setbacks, and recognise their true potential.

This month’s edition is packed with insights and practical tips on dealing with climate change, building resilience and much more. Make sure you explore everything we have to offer—there’s something for everyone, so get stuck in!
