KTC launches wellbeing programs

This year, Kesser Torah College (KTC) has initiated two innovative wellbeing programs aimed at boosting social-emotional skills for students. The URStrong Social Emotional Learning program has been introduced for primary school pupils, while high school students have started their new integrated initiative named Lev-Tov (Good Heart).

Aligned with the school’s vision to blend intellectual growth with the nurture of character, the high school program has been developed in collaboration with the US-based Darcheinu organisation. This comprehensive program integrates psychology with Torah values, focusing on areas such as change management, healthy relationships, conflict resolution, selfesteem and effective communication.

The URStrong program emphasises building skills for the development of confidence, friendships and healthy relationships. Through the curriculum, role-play and visual tools, the initiative is designed to prevent bullying and encourage empathy.

Both programs are part of KTC’s commitment to holistic education, guided by Torah principles. They aim to empower students as compassionate, resilient individuals and include parents in the journey to make these skills a consistent part of students' lives.
