Stronger together for students

Students can only learn when they feel well, while good education also contributes to their wellbeing. Both Stijn and Wellbeing at School are committed to promoting student wellbeing. By bringing the MBO activities together within Stijn, it becomes clearer to schools and professionals where they can go for support, knowledge and practical tools.

In addition, the Wellbeing at School programme will continue to exist for primary education, secondary education and special education (primary, secondary and special education). The Trimbos Institute and Pharos will continue to work together on this in the future. The Trimbos Institute will also remain a knowledge partner of the Healthy School. In this way, they are giving substance to the wellbeing theme within the Healthy School approach for primary, secondary and MBO education.

Collaboration between knowledge partners Trimbos Institute, ECIO and Pharos

Stijn is a programme of the Trimbos Institute, in collaboration with the Expertise Centre for Inclusive Education (ECIO). Through the merger with Wellbeing at School, Pharos's expertise will also be firmly embedded in Stijn. Pharos's knowledge of health inequalities helps institutions reach all students more effectively and ensures that the programme is even better aligned with their needs.

Continuing to work on student wellbeing

By joining forces, the partners will continue working together to make student wellbeing a structural part of good education. Whether you are just starting to work on student wellbeing or have been doing so for some time, staying on course can sometimes be challenging. Stijn is the guide that gives you direction—with knowledge, practical tools, shared insights and a growing network of institutions that learn, share and develop.
