Six schools – Assembly of God High School, Livingstone Foundation Higher Secondary School, Seventh Days Adventist School, Christian Higher Secondary School, King David School and Eden English School – participated in the training program.A press note from the organizers stated that the purpose of the training was to “identify the problematic students in the school who have irregular behavior and not doing well in the class room, and thus some of them are at the verge of giving up their studies. Students comes from different background, such as; poverty, single parenting due to divorce, domestic violence, alcoholism, parent living in a separate place due to service or job, parents living with sickness-HIV/AIDS etc, and some of them might been living in a rented house in a very poor surrounding and atmosphere.” As such, the release said, it is very important to incorporate a counseling cell in the schools to provide psychological, mental and spiritual help besides academic excellence.
