"From the moment we entered the school, we could tell it was a happy and clean school. Two students who met us at the gate wished us 'good morning' with gusto and then wanted to know who we had come to meet. One of them ran to the principal to tell her we had arrived and the other led us to where she was." 🚸 In "Mahaul theek thaak hai," Anurag Behar shows how a positive school culture can be felt right away. This warm welcome highlights the friendly and caring environment created by the teachers and staff. A supportive and engaging atmosphere can make schools a strong foundation for students and the community. Let's work together to build such wonderful educational spaces! #PositiveSchools #SchoolEnvironment #SupportiveLearning https://lnkd.in/dmVk4ed8
