In today’s evolving educational landscape, academic success alone is no longer enough. More than IQ, it is emotional intelligence (EQ) — the ability to understand, manage, and express emotions — that determines a student's overall well-being and long-term success. Recognizing this, The Sovereign School, one of the top CBSE schools in Rohini, places strong emphasis on nurturing emotional intelligence in every learner.
At The Sovereign School, we integrate the School Cinema curriculum, a film-based life skills program that helps students explore real-life situations through storytelling. Students watch age-appropriate films that portray characters facing emotional and social challenges. As they journey with these characters, they learn to reflect on their own emotions, decisions, and behaviours. For example, Grade 6 students explore how to manage changes during adolescence and take responsibility for their behaviour. Grade 4 students learn to recognize their anger triggers, understand physiological changes, and practice techniques to manage anger. They also explore various forms of teasing and how to respond with empathy and confidence. In Grade 7 and 8, students reflect on failure, psychological changes during adolescence, and how to cope with emotional ups and downs.
What sets The Sovereign School apart — and places it among the best schools in North Delhi — is our hands-on approach to emotional learning. Students participate in role-plays, where they act out real-life scenarios that challenge their emotional thinking. They engage in creative self-awareness activities, such as crafting personal portraits surrounded by words that describe their strengths and qualities. Other reflection-based tasks like emotion charades, gratitude journaling, and empathy walks help deepen their understanding of themselves and others.
These skills go far beyond the classroom. Students who develop emotional intelligence are better equipped to build healthy relationships, handle workplace challenges, manage stress, and become empathetic leaders. At The Sovereign School, we believe that fostering these skills from an early age lays the foundation for confident, balanced, and socially responsible individuals.
This is why we are committed to embedding emotional intelligence into our learning environment — making The Sovereign School not just one of the best CBSE schools in Delhi, but a place where students prepare not only for exams, but for life.
