Working closely with the Hawn Foundation, the Jonsson School adopted the MindUP curriculum in 2010 and is focused on helping students:
- Reduce stress and anxiety
- Improve concentration and focus
- Gain greater self-insight and self-awareness
A key element of the curriculum is sharing knowledge about the brain, insights into how it works and how students can influence its responses.
Ask any of our students about their hippocampus!
