Key Takeaways
- There is now evidence across multiple conflict and crisis contexts that 探花精选鈥檚 Healing Classrooms approach to both formal education and tutoring is an effective strategy to increase children鈥檚 basic literacy and numeracy skills.
- There is also evidence that adding Mindfulness to Healing Classrooms tutoring provides a boost in improving academic and some social-emotional outcomes when compared to students enrolled in public school alone.
- While the SEL activities did not achieve all the desired outcomes, we hypothesize that with improved design and implementation, SEL activities could become even more impactful in driving meaningful improvements to children鈥檚 holistic learning outcomes.
