Kulgam (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], November 22 (ANI): The Classes of Joy initiative is transforming primary education in Kulgam, Jammu and Kashmir.
Through this program, Classes of Joy addresses challenges of low attendance and student disengagement, which it believes often stem not from a lack of ability but from a lack of meaningful connection to learning. Hence, the initiative deals with challenges by transforming classrooms into spaces where curiosity, creativity, and confidence grow every day, as per the release.
Classes of Joy are specially designed learning sessions that bring happiness, playfulness, and purposeful interaction into the classroom. These sessions blend academics with activities that tap into children’s natural eagerness to learn. They emphasise hands-on experiences, storytelling, games, movement, peer learning, and positive teacher-student relationships.
According to the principles of Classes of Joy, when children enjoy learning, they engage more actively. The initiative enhances attention spans, reduces fear of failure, and encourages students to take academic risks. As per Classes of Joy, a joyful classroom fosters psychological safety, where students feel seen, valued, and supported, which is closely linked to higher attendance and better learning outcomes. Hence, a massive improvement in learning outcomes was observed.
Classes of Joy aims to boost student attendance by transforming schools into enjoyable spaces, where classrooms become hubs of fun and growth that children naturally want to return to every day. Additionally, when children share their joyful experiences with their families, it motivates parents to ensure regular attendance. As per the Classes of Joy principles, Joyful learning eases academic anxiety, particularly for students who face challenges. Additionally, a caring environment where children feel valued and supported significantly reduces absenteeism.
The schools implementing joyful learning practices consistently observe higher attendance rates, increased participation in class activities, improved learning outcomes, especially in foundational subjects, enhanced confidence and self-expression among students, and foster a stronger classroom community with enhanced peer support.
Classes of Joy demonstrate that education flourishes when children’s hearts and minds are engaged. When students feel happy and connected, attendance rises naturally and learning becomes meaningful. By nurturing joyful, interactive, and child-centred classrooms, schools can cultivate not only better learners but also confident, curious, and motivated individuals. (ANI)
