After watching Dr Alex’s Growth Story, you may want to have a discussion as a class about your own growth. Here are a few suggested discussion points and questions:

• Dr Alex didn’t get into university first time round, and he had to reapply one year later. How would you feel if this happened to you? What would you do?
• Dr Alex described the importance of his support network – his family, friends, his puppy... Who is in your support network? How do they help you?
• ‘Regret will always haunt you more than failure.’ Is there anything you didn’t try when you were younger, that you wish you had? What advice would you give to your younger self, now?
