Abstract
It has been recognised increasingly that academic performance and ultimate success in life
require non-cognitive skills that go beyond simply mastering curriculum content. The aims
of this paper are to provide an overview of the non-cognitive literature in the context of
educational performance and to provide a rationale for the use of non-cognitive interventions
to support the development of wellbeing and perseverance among the student body. This
rationale is expanded to key areas of concern within the Irish educational system to which
non-cognitive approaches may be applied.
