Welcome to
What we do
Every day, we work with leading educators, schools, and researchers around the world to better understand how we can adapt emerging wellbeing science and application to empower educators and their communities.
We Distil Science and Practice
The TWD team consists of highly experienced educators and psychologists with over 70 years of combined classroom practice and leadership experience. We've worked with educators from over 1,000 schools globally and our mission is to share this experience with you and your community through the TWD Academy.
We Understand Your Needs
We understand the lived reality of school leaders, classroom educators, support staff, parents, and carers. And we know that each context is unique, with different cultures, capacities, and challenges. Our courses are intentionally designed to address the pressing needs of you and your school community through flexible delivery options.
Designed and built by educators, for educators
Our online courses include distilled science, clear explanations, and powerful, practical takeaways - specifically for professional educators.
"The TWD courses are a perfect blend of science and practice that genuinely empower classroom educators."
Matt Seddon

"This course is like a handbook for teachers who want to learn more about personal wellbeing and how it can impact their teaching.
I love the tactics! They’re powerful but also simple and practical."
