Why Does a School Benefit from School Counseling?
School counselling is essential in reducing the stress and workload on school administrators. By entrusting professionals with the responsibilities of addressing teacher stress, student inquiries and issues, parental concerns, and more, it enables administrators to concentrate on fostering an optimal learning environment for students
It is strictly run by highly trained and professional Psychologists who are called as ‘School-Counsellors’.
School counsellors are trained professionals who work directly with students, parents, teachers, and school staff to address various issues and challenges that students may face. Some of the key functions of school counselling include:

- Social and Emotional Support: They provide counselling and support to students dealing with personal and emotional issues, such as stress, anxiety, peer relationships, family problems, or grief.
- Crisis Intervention: In times of crisis or emergencies within the school community, school counsellors play a crucial role in providing immediate support and organizing appropriate resources.
- Conflict Resolution: They mediate and help resolve conflicts between students or between students and teachers, promoting a positive and safe school environment.
School counselling plays a vital role in enhancing students’ well-being and academic achievements. It strives to establish an environment where students can prosper, acquire valuable life skills, and unleash their full potential. The responsibilities of school counsellors may differ according to the unique requirements and available resources of each school, as well as the age groups they cater to.
