Counseling Corner

In an increasingly competitive world, where the schooling landscape has undergone significant changes, it is important that students feel supported and confident and are able to adapt to changing environments. This makes School Counseling a fundamental part of any educational system. At Ashoka Universal school, we strongly feel that it is imperative to merge academics and character development for developmental growth, to be productive citizens. Here, counsellors, teachers and parents work hand-in-hand to address topics like academic challenges, career development, social skills, performance, mental health, stress management, etc. Our trained psychologists are an important support system for students, encouraging them to make healthy choices, to acquire a sense of civic responsibility and to develop the skills necessary to realize their individual goals. The school also conducts workshops through the year on these lines for the benefit of all students and parents.
