Sobre este título

 What if the real driver of behaviour, attendance, engagement – and staff retention – isn’t rules, rewards, or even belonging… but mattering? In this deep, reflective conversation, James is joined by Tara Elie – former teacher, behaviour specialist, and positive psychology practitioner – to explore the powerful but often overlooked psychology of mattering: the feeling that you are valued and that you add value. Drawing on Tara’s Master’s research, coaching work with schools, and lived experience as a teacher, the conversation reframes some of education’s biggest challenges through a radically human lens. Together, James and Tara explore: Why belonging is not the starting point, but an outcome of something deeper How low staff and student mattering shows up as disengagement, burnout, behaviour issues and poor attendance The two-part psychology of mattering – feeling valued and adding value – and why imbalance leads to compromised wellbeing Why many behaviour systems unintentionally communicate ‘you don’t add value’ How mattering connects to agency, resilience, engagement, meaning and purpose What psychologically safe schools do differently – for adults and young people Practical ways leaders can audit mattering in their schools without adding workload This episode is especially relevant for: Senior leaders responsible for behaviour, relationships or attendance School leaders concerned about staff wellbeing and retention Anyone frustrated by surface-level fixes to deep, systemic issues If you’ve ever felt that schools are chasing the wrong outcomes – or that something vital is missing from the behaviour conversation – this episode offers a language, a framework, and a hopeful way forward. ‘Belonging isn’t something you can chase.
