Advisory Service
Advisory Services
Abiding Heart offers advisory services to teachers, home educators, and schools worldwide. We work with a wide range of educational settings, including homeschool cooperatives, government and state schools, independent schools, contemplative-based institutions, secular and faith-based schools, holistic centres, and education- and child-focused NGOs and INGOs.
We support individuals and organisations seeking to establish contemplative-based learning programmes or transform existing environments using the Abiding Heart Education™ approach.
Implementing Abiding Heart Education™ in Educational Settings
We partner with educational institutions to implement the Abiding Heart approach and curriculum. Our framework is grounded in a worldview of interdependence and emphasises experiential, applied learning in everyday life.
Key elements of our approach include:
-
Universal values such as innate goodness and empathy, compassion and kindness
-
A holistic view of human development
-
Transformational and experiential learning methods
While rooted in these principles, we also support our partners in aligning with their country’s national curriculum requirements. This ensures that children are prepared not only for academic success but also for meaningful participation in adult life and work.

Advisory Services for Educational Communities
Our advisory service is available to schools and educational organisations planning to enrol their teachers in our Kindergarten through Primary to Early Secondary teacher education programmes. While offered separately, this service works in close partnership with our training courses.
We guide communities in turning their vision for a contemplative-based school into a lived reality, supporting every stage of development:
-
Visioning, planning, and design
-
Implementation of the approach and curriculum
-
Adapting the Abiding Heart Education™ framework to the school’s unique context
-
Ongoing assessment, monitoring, and mentoring
Our Vision for Education
Abiding Heart’s vision is to nurture educational environments where interdependence and compassion are woven into every aspect of learning and teaching. In such settings, both pupils and educators grow in wisdom and compassion.
We see each child as a whole being from birth. Every stage of development is recognised, nurtured, and respected, while honouring individual differences. Children are valued as unique individuals and treated with deep care and respect.
Learning extends beyond the classroom. Children are actively engaged in caring for others and the natural world through socially and environmentally conscious activities.
Within a supportive and nurturing community, children are given the space to discover and develop their unique talents. This fosters the confidence needed to participate meaningfully in society. Graduates emerge as responsible and resilient individuals—creative, curious, confident, cooperative, committed, and socially aware.
Teachers relate to pupils as equal and unique individuals. They build relationships grounded in care and respect, value children’s perspectives, and cultivate a culture of attentive, active listening.
We prioritise creating open and safe learning environments where students feel emotionally supported, are encouraged to ask questions, and are empowered to think critically.
