Abstract: This article presents the methodological bases of the research project “Fostering resilience in Primary Education: Innovation and Continuous Teacher Training” (PID2019-111032RB-I00), funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation. In order to respond to the challenges faced by the post-pandemic school, the project aims to identify possible shortcomings or needs in resilience-related skills and to foster their development in 5th and 6th grade primary school students. Given the complexity of the topic and the globalising nature of the objectives proposed in the study, the adaptation of the method to the principle of complementarity of research techniques is justified by carrying out a mixed descriptive-comprehensive action-oriented study. This article presents the methodological design, including the development, validation, implementation, and analysis of two data collection instruments—‘Initial screening interview with managers to identify resilience-building needs’ (EDINRES+D) and ‘Initial screening interview with teachers to identify training needs in resilience’ (EDINRES+M)—along with the main findings of the study. The focus lies on providing a comprehensive overview of both the instruments and the results derived from their application.
