Abstract | Recently, society and further education institutions have seen an increase in the reporting of poor mental health and wellbeing. Although further education settings (typically comprising of study programmes ranging between levels one to six, including A levels, apprenticeships, T levels, GCSEs, BTECs and higher education qualifications) are appropriately placed to be part of a solution to this issue, they are suffering from a shortage of resources and an inability to intimately understand poor mental health and wellbeing. Consequently, it has become difficult for institutions to implement appropriate interventions that prevent poor mental health and wellbeing. Appreciative inquiry was used to explore a further education institution and how they encouraged students to flourish. The novel use of photovoice allowed the researchers to empower the participants and produce a dynamic and deep conversation. The study found that informal peer and teacher support were crucial in ensuring students flourished. More pertinently, a trusting and collaborative environment was established through informal conversations between teacher and student. An unexpected outcome was students consistently citing happiness as an essential element of a flourishing student. Due to the differing cultural and geographical contexts, other institutions should conduct similar research to investigate what enables their students to flourish. (As Provided). |
