Career & Course Counselling
Counselling
At St. Joan’s School, our dedicated School Counsellor plays a vital role in fostering the emotional and mental well-being of our students. The counsellor provides a safe and confidential space for students to discuss personal challenges, helping them navigate academic pressures, social issues, and emotional concerns.
Through one-on-one sessions, group workshops, and classroom interventions, our counsellor promotes healthy coping strategies, resilience, and positive self-esteem.
They also work closely with teachers and parents to ensure a supportive environment that encourages holistic development.
Our counsellor’s goal is to empower students to achieve their full potential both academically and personally.
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Global Reach
St. Joan’s School takes pride in facilitating the future success of our students through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Global Reach for comprehensive career counselling. This initiative underscores our dedication to equipping our students with the tools and knowledge necessary for their academic and professional journey, ensuring they are ready to meet the challenges and opportunities of the global stage.
Who is this designed for?
This partnership is especially designed for students aspiring to study abroad, offering them invaluable assistance with University applications, scholarships and visa applications.
Understanding the critical nature of making informed decisions about higher education and career paths, this collaboration ensures our students are well-prepared to navigate the complexities of international studies.
Psychometric Testing
Furthermore, as part of our commitment to helping students discover their true potential and interests, psychometric testing sessions will be organised. These sessions aim to assess various aptitudes and personality traits, providing insights that will guide students in making informed career choices.
Making appointments
A Global Reach counsellor will be available on campus once a month during lunch times for personal consultations. Students interested in these services can schedule an appointment through the school office.
Visit by Professor Guy Littlefair, Pro Vice-Chancellor & Dean, Faculty of Design, University of Auckland
In collaboration with Global Reach, St. Joan’s School Kolkata, was thrilled to welcome Professor Guy Littlefair, Pro Vice-Chancellor and Dean of the Faculty of Design at the University of Auckland.
The school was honored to host someone of Professor Littlefair’s stature and experience.
Due to an unforeseen heatwave, the interactive session with Classes X-XII had to be canceled, much to the disappointment of the enthusiastic students.
However, the school hoped to arrange another session soon, possibly online, to benefit from Professor Littlefair’s insights.
New Zealand’s reputation for excellence in education is well recognized, and having a connection with Auckland University of Technology was truly incredible for the students.
As a token of appreciation, the Kindergarten students, who were eager to meet Professor Littlefair, stayed back and presented him with flowers.
St. Joan’s School thanked Professor Littlefair for his visit and looks forward to future collaborations.

We are thrilled to share that 360 of our students participated in the recent “Study in USA” session at St. Joan’s School!

Study in Australia
Students of Classes XI & XII of St. Joan’s School had the enriching experience of attending the Global Reach – Study in Australia fair on 1st August at the Park Hotel.
