Back in 1985 Pt. Madan Lal Sharma Ji and Sh. B.R. Sharma Ji was established an education hub in the suburban vicinity of Rohini. Subsequently, the Yuvashakti Model school came into existence as an institution which was committed to provide holistic development for its students. Over the years the school evolved and became one of the pioneering educational institutions in India, and Delhi, where students could imbibe knowledge, learn to embrace their skills and become educated to attain the very best in their life. In this article, we will take you through how Yuvashakti Model School focus on kids’ overall development.
Role of a School in the Overall Development of Children
Before we narrate how Yuvashakti Model School (YMS), offers holistic development for children, let us understand the role of a school in a child’s overall development –
- Social Development-
One of the fundamental roles of a school is to provide an environment that aids in the social development of children. This is because school is the first place where the students learn to socialize, and most part of their childhood. It is very important for a child to have positive social experiences, especially at the primary school level. Moreover, positive relationships in school ignite interest and excitement in the child to be present in school, which is the primary step to learning. Besides, the school needs to create a safe space for children which is absolutely necessary, especially for adolescents’ emotional development.
The school must include social activities that foster emotional and mental growth. Not just good grades, but also high self-confidence and self-esteem play a critical role in a child’s professional life Hence it is important for the school to create a space that encourages students to express themselves, and effectively put forth thoughts and ideas
- Academic Development –
One of the primary roles of any educational institution is to provide valuable knowledge to its students. It is important for the school to build an environment where each student reaches their full potential academically. This can be done by employing engaging teaching methods, creating a fun learning atmosphere, and making the classroom space more conducive to learning and growth.
- Support Mechanism
The third and the most important role of the school is to offer a support mechanism. A child spends a lot of time in school, which rightly affirms that the school is their second home. Hence it is important to create a safe space to acknowledge and address, behavioural problems or disruptive tendencies of a child. The school must have in-house counsellors and teachers who are trained to provide the necessary support to a child when needed.
