Abstract

The concept of ‘embedding wellbeing within the curriculum’ is not new – it has been discussed by many stakeholders previously as an important step in addressing
wellbeing concerns amongst the student population. Indeed, the USI Report on Student Mental Health in 2019 and the National Student Mental Health and Suicide
Prevention Framework in 2020 spoke of the importance of embedding wellbeing within the classroom. Despite this, there is limited research available on how wellbeing can be embedded within the curriculum, and what practice in this space looks like.
