2. How is integrating SEL into the curriculum different from traditional education

Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) is vital as it nurtures all-around growth, not just academically but also emotionally and socially. SEL equips individuals with essential skills for handling life's challenges, creating a positive learning atmosphere, building resilience, decreasing behavior problems, and encouraging positive social interactions.

Integrating SEL into the curriculum complements traditional education by fostering a supportive learning environment, enhancing interpersonal skills, and preparing students for success in various aspects of life. It acknowledges the interconnectedness of academic, emotional, and social development.
