Student Wellbeing
A child's overall physical, emotional, social and mental health — increasingly tracked and supported as a curriculum strand in modern schools.
Wellbeing is its own subject strand in the Oxford International Curriculum. It covers physical health, mental health, online safety, healthy relationships and resilience. Yajur runs structured wellbeing sessions every week from Class 1.
