What if schools were intentionally designed around the experiences that most shape students’ lifelong wellbeing, purpose, and success?
Drawing on insights from the Gallup-Purdue Index and Avenues’ Student Experience framework, this two-day deep dive invites participants to explore the six essential experiences that research shows have a lasting impact on students: inspiration, care, mentorship, deep work, real-world application, and belonging.
Participants will engage in a highly interactive process that blends reflection, analysis, and design. Through guided activities, they will:
  • Reflect on their own formative learning experiences and connect them to the research
  • Explore the “Big Six” and how they translate into the Avenues Student Experience
  • Conduct an experience audit of their own schools to identify strengths, gaps, and opportunities
  • Examine concrete examples from Avenues São Paulo, including structures such as circles, mentorship, mastery projects, and real-world learning programs
  • Apply a mentor mindset lens, considering how adult relationships and intentional design shape student growth across all six experiences
  • Begin designing or refining systems and practices that make these experiences more consistent and equitable for all students
Across the two days, participants will move from understanding research → seeing it in practice → applying it to their own context.
Participants will leave with:
  • A clear, research-informed framework for student experience and wellbeing
  • Practical tools to assess how intentionally their school delivers key experiences
