The 9 Non-Academic Factors That Impact Student Learning

Every day, students walk into classrooms carrying more than just their backpacks. Many bring unseen burdens – lack of confidence, anxiety about learning, or feelings of not belonging. These non-academic, attitudinal factors can significantly influence student success, yet they’re often overlooked.

In this free report, you’ll discover:

  • The 9 core attitudinal factors that shape student engagement and achievement
  • Research-backed insights into how these factors impact mental health and learning outcomes
  • How schools can identify and address these issues early – before they affect long-term success

 

What is PASS?

The Pupil Attitudes to Self and School (PASS) Survey is a short, research-based tool that gives educators insight into students’ emotional and attitudinal readiness to learn.

It helps identify hidden barriers to learning such as low self-esteem, anxiety, or disengagement—often before they show up in behaviour or results.

PASS supports whole-school wellbeing strategies, targeted interventions, and evidence-based decision-making.
