Positive Discipline

Teacher-parents reveal how they juggle the roles of educator and nurturer, balancing discipline with empathy. Their stories highlight the importance of listening, connecting, and supporting children beyond academics, showing that the strongest lessons come from love and understanding at home.

Disturbed by deaths caused by teachers hitting students, these 11th-graders in Tamil Nadu designed creative solutions to introduce positive discipline in the classroom, in lieu of punishment. The project won the ‘Bold & Audacious’ award at the ‘I CAN Awards 2015’ organised by Design for Change.
