CAREER COUNSELLING FOR GRADE 8

“The job you seek isn’t out there in some job description, it’s already inside you, aching to get out.” The limited choices of careers are a pass now. Gone are the days when the only career options to choose from were limited to a handful of well-known and respectable professions .Today it’s crucial to make children realise their potential at a very young age and not wait for them to reach seniority in school. In the Middle School ,students of grade Eight are exposed to Career Counselling. This is organised to make the youngsters identify their strengths. Each individual today, has much more flexibility and varied options when it comes to choosing a right career and being successful in their area of interest. Out-of-the-box approach in all fields of learning, is the mantra of today! When a 11-12 year old shows an inclination towards music, he certainly means it! The parents in present times choose to be supportive of the choices made. The young learners today have the choice of deciding upon a career other than the conventional ones.

Our career counselling department organizes various career awareness programs for students through workshops and through classroom interactions. Experts from various professions and fields are also invited to interact with the students of grade eight.

The Middle school too like the Senior school, collaborates closely with Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies in giving exposure to our young students to a variety of Career options, they have the freedom to choose from.

As facilitators of students in the Middle School, our endeavour is to help them choose the right subjects to make suitable career choices. Individual and collective counselling session by our school counsellors with both the parents with their wards as per the appointment given by the class teacher are organised. 

Since The Middle School initiates Career Counselling, Our counsellor and teachers are approachable and available for clearing all kinds of apprehensions arising in the minds of the parents and their wards.

Information is the key to success, anywhere and everywhere. Right information matters the most.

SOFT SKILLS AND LIFE SKILLS

Soft skills, often known as “people’s skill” are personal skills that enable us to amicably engage in meaningful interactions with others.

In the Middle School the learners who have already been introduced to such attributes by their parents are made to recap , and further cultivate their dexterity in Soft Skills through workshops on the notion of interactive sessions, videos and stories, the online medium, teamwork and with the help of power point presentations. Real life experiences too are shared to inspire the children to focus on this ability.

Fundamentals of Soft skills such as Leadership Skills, Teamwork, Communication Skills ,Problem-Solving Skills, Work Ethics, Flexibility/Adaptability, Interpersonal Skills are introduced .

Gradually the students of grade 6-8 are made aware of the viability of these qualities so that they themselves hone the ones they already possess and are open minded enough to develop those they need to. Soft Skills sessions have been a continuous endeavour of MRIS Ludhiana.

The need of the hour in all areas of work is technical skills and much more. Today, to get a good placement, you need refined skills to gel with your co-workers and the culture of the establishment. Therefore, the learner is trained in Middle school only to be enterprising and aspire for the best , professionally and flourish in all they do.
