Discipline is Conducive to Positivity and Learning

posted on Sep 17, 2019

We all know that a healthy school environment contributes effectively to the process of education impartation. However, not many know that the school environment is also fundamental to improving the overall performance of children in various spheres of life. A positive school environment is hence a must as it deeply impacts the learning behavior of students and affects their performance in academics and other co-curricular domains. This is exactly where the concept of positive disciplining has been gaining a lot of importance lately.

Disciplining children is basically a matter of exercising control over their behaviors, often for the purpose of bringing in positive behavior modifications at an early age. There is a direct connection between the quality of the learning environment they are exposed to and their emotional well-being, attitudes, and behavior. This is why a productive classroom environment that is conducive to positivity and learning is vital for students to improve their social competence, behavior traits, and of course, academic performance.

The Power of Positive Disciplining

Creating a sphere of positivity combined with learning pedagogy can help lay down an effective disciplinary plan for students in the school setting. Effective disciplining is conducive to produce positivity in the classroom and enhance the learning experience of students.

From misbehaving with peers to failing to do the assigned work, children do need to be disciplined for their every misdeed. However, rather than rewards and punishment, positive discipline makes an effective choice to deal with any unwanted behavior from children. Positive disciplining allows children to learn and adapt their behaviors to meet the high expectations of conduct while simultaneously teaching them to amend their way of life.

We, at Gurukul The School, believe that positive disciplining and behavior modification is fundamental to an individual’s intellect and mental framework. We hence foster an all-inclusive learning environment where due significance is given to positive disciplinary strategies. The aim is to groom the budding young minds into strong, impactful personalities with values and discipline for the future world.

Positive Environment Promotes Deepened Learning

When teachers exhibit a caring, responsive, and empathetic approach while interacting with students, they aid in creating a positive and productive environment that sets the tone for learning. Moreover, a healthy and positive teacher-student relationship facilitates a positive learning atmosphere, and any disciplinary plan in such a setting is more likely to succeed.

Indeed, establishing and maintaining positive behaviors in classroom aids in generating a conducive ambience for learning and impels students towards accomplishing the targets. That is why it is important to recognize and reinforce positive behaviors in children while preventing and reducing the negative ones.

A fair, consistent, and positive learning environment can serve as the key to students’ academic, emotional, and social success in an educational setting. We, at Gurukul, ensure providing the right guidance and environment to our pupils so as to set a healthier setting for them to succeed academically, personally, as well as professionally in the later years.

The Importance of Creating and Enforcing a School-Wide Discipline Plan

Implementing a proper discipline plan and reviewing the same constantly and fairly do more good than helping children learn what behaviors are acceptable and what are not. We, at Gurukul The School, believe that the first step to establishing a code of behavior is to make the children aware of a set of positive behaviors that are respectful, kind, fair, and appropriate. Encouraging students for their good behaviors and maintaining a fair, consistent application of behavior standards in the classrooms helps to empower children to choose to do the right thing. This approach helps to enhance positivity and learning in a classroom setting.

We, at Gurukul The School, positioned among the top 10 CBSE schools in Ghaziabad, firmly believe that discipline is just as conducive to one’s intellectual and personal growth, as it is to learning. We hence always strive to instill a sense of discipline among our students, which thereby aids them in their socio-emotional well-being and personal development. Our approach to character education aims at incorporating moral values of respect, honesty, fairness, and responsibility in children. These core values serve as the foundation for all personal and professional relationships in life. When children are instilled with these core values at an early age, and along with, embrace discipline as a way of life, it helps pave the path for them to attain immense success in life ahead.
