Overview

Moulding Minds: 20 Things It's Important for Young People to Learn (and How to Teach Them)What do young people really need to thrive, not just in school, but in life? Moulding Minds explores twenty essential life skills that underpin success, wellbeing, and character, from kindness and resilience to critical thinking, responsibility, and purpose. Written by a Scottish teacher, this book bridges the gap between educational ideals and the everyday realities of working with young people. Each chapter clearly explains why the skill matters, what it looks like in practice, and how adults can actively teach and model it, with practical examples drawn from real classrooms, schools, and learning communities. This is not a textbook or a list of quick fixes. Instead, it is a reflective, practical guide designed to prompt discussion, encourage professional judgement, and support meaningful conversations about what truly matters in education. This book is ideal for: Teachers, educators and support staff working with children and young people. Probationers, student teachers and early-career teachers. Pastoral staff, guidance teachers, and youth workers. Parents and carers who want to support character development at home. Chapters can be read in order or dipped into as needed, making this a flexible resource for professional reflection, staff discussions, or personal reading. At its heart, Moulding Minds is a reminder that every interaction matters and that the influence adults have on young people is far greater than they often realise.
