need for reducing curriculum load, organize appropriate learning experiences which are joyful in nature
and related to immediate environment of the learner and help them develop and imbibe desirable values.

Self-concept, a vital aspect of personality, influences behavior, attitudes, and academic performance, especially during adolescence—a period of significant biological, cognitive, and emotional changes. The research aims to compare the self-concepts of boys and girls in secondary schools, using a sample of 60 students (30 boys and 30 girls) from three government schools in Puri town. Data were collected through a standardized self-concept scale covering six dimensions: behavior, intellectual status, physical appearance, anxiety, popularity, and happiness. The analysis shows no significant overall difference between the self-concepts of boys and girls, though boys scored slightly higher on physical appearance and attributes. The findings suggest that while self-concept is similarly developed among boys and girls, certain aspects, such as body image, are more prominent in boys. The study emphasizes the importance of nurturing positive self-concept through supportive environments created by parents and teachers, especially during adolescence. Furthermore, it calls for future research across different regions and educational settings to deepen the understanding of gender-related self-concept development and its impact on academic and personal growth.
