Abstract
This essay is a commentary on Curren et al., ‘Finding consensus on well-being in education’. It acknowledges a growing international consensus that presents educational systems need to change and argues the case for consensus on flourishing as the overall purpose of education can be strengthened by drawing on economists’ work on well-being with respect to the inclusive wealth of nations. It emphasizes the need for tangible and measurable indicators that educators can use when implementing Curren et al.’s recommendations and outlines the International Science and Evidence based Education assessment’s suggestion of a ‘whole brain’ approach to education for flourishing.
