Traditionally, education focuses on three R’s: reading, writing and arithmetic. But in order for young people to become happy and caring individuals, those skills are not enough. Increasingly, there is now also attention to ’soft skills’, most often called social-emotional learning, or SEL.

SEL and emotional education is the process through which students acquire and apply the knowledge, attitudes and skills necessary to:

- understand and manage emotions (self-awareness)
- set and achieve positive goals (self-management)
- feel and show empathy to others (social awareness)
- establish and maintain positive relationships (relationship skills)- make responsible decisions.
