Has Guidance and Counselling become just as important as academics in today’s schools?
A child may pass Mathematics and Science, yet still struggle with:
– confidence
– peer pressure
– anger
– fear
– online influence
– self-worth
Children today are facing more pressure, confusion, distractions, and emotional struggles than many realise. Because success is not only about grades.
It is also about character, confidence, and emotional well-being.
So, who should shape this most — parents or teachers?
Or both together?
