A must-read for every parent, carer and educator as school refusal, mental health struggles and social challenges continue to rise. Trailblazing teacher Gavin McCormack’s transformative 7-step program helps children build resilience and thrive beyond traditional measures of success.

Gavin believes when children are given independence, the right tools, and the encouragement to build on their strengths, their potential is limitless. His ground-breaking guide redefines what it means to receive a ‘good education’ by highlighting the power of modelling positive behaviour and prioritising essential life skills over academic scores.

Drawing on the latest neuroscience of learning and years of teaching experience in mainstream and Montessori schools, he offers practical strategies that will help children navigate life's challenges, learn with passion and grow into capable, confident and compassionate human beings.
