Home Adjustment, School Adjustment and Social Adjustment of Higher Secondary School Students: A Review

Abstract

Adjustment is a process that is supposed to lead to a person's happy and contented life. It establishes a balance between requirements and capacity to meet them, persuades those concerned to adapt their lifestyles to the demands of the circumstances, and provides the strength and capability to bring about desired changes in environmental conditions. The study suggested that schools must emphasize teaching students how to adjust to themselves and their surroundings, rather than just excellent academic achievement. Schools must hold regular sessions with student's parents to keep them informed about their children's progress. Schools must keep a separate record of students' behaviour inside the school and identify emotionally immature students. This will help them to give counseling. All the schools must be upgraded with modern amenities such as a well-equipped laboratory, a well-stocked library, and well-organized classrooms. In the classroom, a technique of group discussion and other curricular activities might be organized. As a result, the student's adjustment will improve. This study presents a review of literature on the topic. This paper is an attempt to reviews the papers from 2010 to 2020.
