The Gurukul Foundation School: Counselling and Wellness Services

At Gurukul Foundation School, we prioritise the holistic well-being of our students, recognizing that mental, emotional, and physical health are interconnected. Our Counseling and Wellness Program is built around the concept of the 4 B’s: Brain, Body, Breath, and Belief.

Our dedicated management and teachers are readily available to provide support and guidance to students facing academic, social, or personal challenges. The Gurukul follows an open door policy, encouraging students to seek support and guidance whenever they require it, trying to foster an approachable environment. We offer a safe and confidential space for students to express their thoughts and feelings.

Physical health is vital for a student’s overall wellness. Our initiatives encourage students to engage in activities that promote a healthy lifestyle:
