Apeejay School, Kharghar conducts time management session for students
The session introduces goal-setting, daily planning and the Pomodoro Technique.
Apeejay School, Kharghar, organised a time management session to help students develop effective planning habits and understand the importance of balancing academic responsibilities with leisure activities. The session focused on practical strategies students can incorporate into their daily routines to manage time more efficiently.
During the interaction, students were introduced to the concept of SMART goals, encouraging them to set targets that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound. This approach aimed to help them break larger academic tasks into manageable objectives and work toward them with greater clarity.
The session also highlighted the importance of preparing a daily schedule. Students were encouraged to organise their activities, prioritise tasks and allocate adequate time to studies, hobbies and recreation. The discussion addressed common distractions that can affect productivity, particularly while studying, and emphasised the need to remain focused on planned activities.
Another key component was the introduction of the Pomodoro Technique, a time management method that involves dividing work into focused intervals separated by short breaks. The technique was presented as a practical way to improve concentration, avoid prolonged periods of unproductive study and maintain consistency while completing tasks.
The session concluded with an activity titled ‘Reflect and Replace,’ which encouraged students to reflect on their existing time-use patterns and identify habits that could be changed or improved. A video presentation further reinforced the importance of using time wisely and making conscious choices about daily activities.
The interactive session focused on helping students recognise that effective time management is not simply about completing more tasks but also about maintaining a healthy balance between responsibilities and personal interests. Developing such habits can help learners become more organised, independent and disciplined.
Through the initiative, Apeejay School, Kharghar, emphasised the importance of life skills alongside academic learning. The session encouraged students to take greater ownership of their schedules, set realistic goals and make better use of their time both inside and outside the classroom.
