Until recently, parents primarily chose schools based on academic results and the quality of teaching. Today, this perspective is evolving. Increasingly, attention is shifting not only to what a child learns, but to how they learn, how they manage emotions, respond to challenges and build relationships with others.
This is particularly evident in an international school environment, where children are immersed in a new language and cultural context from the very beginning. Here, success depends not only on academic ability, but also on adaptability, emotional resilience and sustained motivation.
This is why emotional intelligence is becoming a central focus in modern education.
