Guidance And counseling

Guidance and counseling have been given a  

central placement in the school, with the purpose of  assisting the students in fulfilling  their basic physiological needs,  understanding themselves and  developing associations with  peers.It also enhances balancing  between permissiveness and  controls in the school setting,  realizing successful achievement,  and providing opportunities to gain  independence. 

To maintain this, there are family  days, guidance and counseling  programs, class meetings, family  groups patronized by teacher parents. 

The department comes up  

with integrated programs at  the beginning of every term  with facilitators involving peer  counselors, teachers, invited  motivational speakers and  

professional counselors. Parents  are also involved to encourage  and guide learners in relation to  their parental experience during  academic clinics. The department  has focused on academic  

motivation and on overcoming  personal and group challenges  and problems among other  contemporary issues. 

The department has initiated a  program, “LOVE BASKET”, upon  realization that some students were  needy and could not cope up with  life in school. Every stakeholder in  

school makes contributions in aid of vulnerable students for access of basic needs immediately they report to school “True guidance is like a small torch in a dark forest.It  

does not show everything at once,but gives enough light for the next step to be safe.”
