(1)<br>A holistic approach recognises that all children, particularly those facing extreme adversity,<br>require a range of knowledge, skills, experiences, and core values that will<br>enable them to engage as productive and ethical citizens, and reach their<br>potential in life.<br><br>Holistic approaches to learning are defined and characterised in a<br>variety of ways, encompassing a spectrum of terms that were included<br>in the review process and serve as an umbrella term that includes: whole<br>child development, social and emotional learning, play-based learning,<br>character education, 21st century skills, transversal competencies, life<br>skills, well-being, psychosocial support, soft skills, global competencies,<br>noncognitive skills, citizenship, non-academic skills, career readiness,<br>and character education. For the purposes of sourcing evidence, it<br>includes holistic learning, development, pedagogy, curriculum, skills,<br>competencies, mindsets, and behaviours, and is used as the primary<br>reference point within the report. While approaches and skills are different,<br>for the purposes of this paper we separate those out depending on<br>the context cited. We acknowledge the differences in the interpretation<br>and definitions of each of these terms, and that often organisations use<br>different frameworks or conflicting terminology in relation to a similar set<br>of skills. While the complex and conflicting terminologies used in the field<br>can make it difficult to compare research findings, by seeking evidence<br>that included the terms above (and associated skills), the report succeeds<br>in synthesizing what we know (and what we don\u2019t) in relation to impact.<br>For the purposes of this paper, we focus on what they have in common,<br>namely the belief that education should be geared towards a breadth of<br>skills, beyond literacy and numeracy, given the weight of evidence behind<br>their impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(1)  Tarricone, P., Nietschke, Y., &amp; Hillman, K.
