Happy Schools: Placing Happiness at the Heart of Schools

By Dr Romesh Kumar

Happy Schools is not just a book-it is a clarion call, a movement waiting to happen. It is a call to transform schools into spaces where well-being and happiness are as important as learning outcomes. The book challenges the status quo and offers a practical framework to reimagine schools as centers of emotional well-being alongside academic performance. Drawing from real-life stories, research, and global models that have successfully placed well-being at the heart of education, it challenges toxic myths around success, learning, marks, and discipline and advocates for prioritizing well-being in schools.

This book is for parents who wonder if they're doing the right thing, for teachers who feel trapped in a system that overlooks emotional needs, and for policymakers seeking lasting reform. It is equally relevant for school heads and management teams looking to embed well-being into the DNA of their institutions and for students seeking to understand the deeper purpose of education beyond exams and ranks.

The book is a humble effort to advocate and guide for placing happiness at the heart of schools.
