Wellbeing at DPSI

Perceive emotions, Ponder situations deeply, Pilot through turbulent situations peacefully

At DPS International, we are dedicated to nurturing a community of socially aware and compassionate individuals, poised to make a meaningful impact on our world. Central to our mission is the belief that Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) competencies are indispensable in achieving this goal.

Through our unwavering commitment to student wellbeing, we empower our learners with a diverse range of interpersonal and intrapersonal skills, fostering empathy and emotional intelligence. These essential qualities will equip our students to engage thoughtfully with pressing societal issues and proactively contribute to solutions.

SEL lessons and emotion Check-ins across grades

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) takes center stage at our school, seamlessly woven into tailored lesson plans designed for diverse age groups. Our curriculum prioritizes the cultivation of self and social awareness, guiding students to recognize emotions and appreciate diverse perspectives.

Through regular check-ins, students have a platform to express their feelings, allowing us to address their individual needs effectively.

By engaging in reflective practices and exploring various responses, students develop a deep understanding of diversity, learn to navigate biases and foster resilience and a growth mindset. This empowers them to approach challenges with mindfulness and confidence.

Periodic self-assessments provide students with insights into their growth journey.

Our commitment to ongoing emotional data analysis ensures the effectiveness and transparency of our approach, allowing us to continuously refine and enhance the SEL experience for our students.
