Panel discussion: Holistic Education and Child Safety

Child Safety in schools has to be a key ingredient of school-culture: a way of life adopted not only by school management, teachers, staff and students but also the parents. It is beyond infrastructure and transport issue. Many schools have established simple yet effective programs to ensure safe environment for children. Structured initiatives by school management need to be balanced with participation by parents, community as well as awareness among students. A holistic education, which comprises focus on values, life skills and adolescent education will encourage them to Express, Experiment, and Evolve, thus Empowering them to explore their potential. This session will explore ways to make schools happy and safe places for our children.
