Emotion education equips young people with the skills they need to thrive in school and beyond. It involves teaching students how to manage emotions, set and reach goals, solve problems, and make responsible decisions. By integrating emotional intelligence into learning environments, schools help students become more socially aware, strengthen relationship skills, and build a strong sense of belonging. This foundation not only supports academic achievement but also enhances students’ ability to establish and maintain healthy connections. When schools and communities work together to implement EI, they create collaborative spaces where academic performance and well-being go hand in hand, preparing students to succeed in all aspects of life.
