In the dynamic and ever-evolving world of education, students face many challenges, both inside and outside the classroom. These challenges can range from academic concerns and personal struggles to career aspirations and social dilemmas. To address these diverse needs, the school has established a dedicated Counseling Department that serves as a cornerstone of support for students and their families. the team consists of 6 counselors, with a counselor overseeing the work of each department.

2. Social and Behavioral Skills: Building positive relationships and developing social and emotional skills are essential for a well-rounded education. Our counsellors offer life skills and guidance on conflict resolution, communication, and social interaction to help students thrive both inside and outside the classroom.

Our team also conducts sessions on Growing Up and POCSO for the children and other areas of concern on a need basis. Classroom observations are consistently done throughout the year for all classes, and regular check-ins are done with students, their parents or the teachers who might be facing particular challenges.

5. Confidentiality and Trust: The well-being and privacy of our students are of the utmost importance to us. Our counsellors maintain strict confidentiality, ensuring that students can openly discuss their concerns without fear of judgment or disclosure.

6. We foster collaboration with teachers and parents, recognizing the significance of these formative years in lifelong success. We advocate for students’ needs and facilitate orientation sessions for teachers and parents at the beginning of each academic year. Moreover, we conduct ongoing training sessions for teachers throughout the academic year to increase their awareness on various concerns and broaden their knowledge, in order to ensure that students’ have a holistic learning experience.
