80% of students feel about fostering TSR (QSE), but peer relationships remain the top counseling issue (CSM).

Why:

- Teachers may be supportive, but not fully aware of peer conflicts happening outside the classroom (e.g., in social media, CCAs, or informal spaces).
- Students trust teachers but prefer not to disclose peer issues, choosing instead to cope alone.
- Counseling support may be reactive rather than preventive, only addressing issues after escalation.

What next:

- Encourage anonymous reporting or peer surveys on friendship struggles and hidden tensions.
- Train teachers in early peer conflict detection strategies (e.g., recognizing social withdrawal, exclusion patterns).

PSL (Peer Support Leaders) are meant to be a support system, but student feedback is inconsistent—some find PSLs helpful, while others see them as just running events (FGD).

Why:

- PSLs may be more event-focused rather than being actively trained in peer intervention strategies.
- Some students may not view PSLs as approachable or equipped to help with deeper personal issues.

What next:

- Review and redefine PSL roles with & do a needs analysis on skills required e.g. peer mediation, conflict resolution.
- With stronger understanding of PSLs over the year (either in Primary/Secondary school), conduct student feedback surveys to understand what students expect from PSLs based on their prior knowledge/exposure.
- Improve PSL outreach through more informal peer check-ins, rather than just during events.
