In response to the challenges posed by merit-oriented learning and highly competitive environments, Bhumi's Head, Heart & Love (HELO) Program addresses the social and emotional needs of children by integrating social and emotional learning (SEL) into education. The program aims to nurture skills such as developing healthy identities, managing emotions, empathy, building supportive relationships, and making responsible decisions. Through a comprehensive, "whole-school" approach, HELO creates reflective learning spaces for various stakeholders in the education system and provides grade-specific content to enhance SEL competencies. By prioritizing emotional intelligence alongside academic achievement, the program seeks to prepare children for a balanced and resilient future amidst the pressures of modern society.
