contributed to the privilege of an individual with respect to family make up, surroundings

and school atmosphere. However, years of research and analysis has identified, that if

we can hone these skills in a structured and conscious way, any individual can grow,

irrespective of the above-mentioned privileges, which can be scarce in these days due

to various socio-economic conditions.

curriculum and content, developed with interactive and engaging activities, to make
