Empathy is a facilitator of social, emotional, and cognitive wellbeing and achievement that can actualise teaching, learning and the self. I will present some of my research in empathy over the last three decades from the Institute of Psychiatry King’s College London to the Faculty of Education University of Cambridge, including early childhood empathy, pupil voice, teacher-pupil engagement, creativity in the classroom, and the most recent work using empathy interventions in schools that has shown an increase in empathic awareness, wellbeing and school engagement.
