In India, school psychology is an emerging field of study. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has mandated the appointment of school counsellors to boost mental health through counselling, life-skills education, and career guidance. In the present study, the school counsellor implemented a five-minute meeting to quickly interact with students to promote their wellbeing. Using universal sampling, data were collected from 78 students using a Google survey form at one of the leading private schools in Meerut city of Uttar Pradesh State, India. The findings of the study indicated an improvement in the personal-social and school-career domains of students’ wellbeing. Approximately 72% of students reported being happy, and 58% shared being friendly (personal-social domain). Nearly 68% of students reported doing well in the school (school-career domain). Moreover, 65% of students expressed willingness to meet with the counsellor. The initiative received an overwhelmingly positive response (82%), indicating that it has increased the value of support for these students. This initiative provided an opportunity for both the counsellor and students to get to know each other and allowed the counsellor to plan individual and group counselling sessions as needed. Prospective studies could employ robust methodology with a larger sample size to evaluate the effects of this initiative on mental health outcomes.

在印度，学校心理学是一个新兴的研究领域。中央中等教育委员会 (CBSE) 已强制任命学校辅导员，通过咨询、生活技能教育和职业指导来促进心理健康。在本研究中，学校辅导员实施了一次五分钟的会议，与学生快速互动，以促进他们的福祉。通过通用抽样，使用 Google 调查表从印度北方邦密拉特市一所领先私立学校的 78 名学生收集了数据。研究结果表明，学生在个人社交和学校职业领域的幸福感有所改善。大约 72% 的学生表示很快乐，58% 的学生表示很友善（个人社交领域）。近 68% 的学生表示在学校（学校职业领域）表现良好。此外，65%的学生表示愿意与辅导员会面。该倡议获得了压倒性的积极响应（82%），表明它增加了对这些学生的支持价值。这一举措为辅导员和学生提供了相互了解的机会，并允许辅导员根据需要计划个人和团体咨询课程。前瞻性研究可以采用具有更大样本量的稳健方法来评估这一举措对心理健康结果的影响。
