HOW WE HANDLE STUDENTS
We have specially trained school counsellor who primarily:
- Help students to explore their abilities, strengths, interests, and talents as these traits relate to career awareness and development.
- Address the red flag for behavioural issues marked by the teacher. This helps both the counsellor and the teacher to better understand the student.
- Guide parents on the educational, personal, and social growth of students.
- Work with teachers and other educators to help students explore their potential and set realistic goals for themselves.
- Listen and empathise with the students.
It is best to tackle problems before they become insurmountable. The School Counsellor provides developmental, proactive, and preventative services for students. This involves a co-operative effort among students, staff members, and parents.
Our purpose is to empower all learners to lead satisfying and productive lives by assisting them in identifying and achieving educational, career, personal, and social goals. We are here to help by working with academic issues, educational and career planning, as well as personal concerns.
