What are the psychological needs of high school/ higher secondary school students? I am a teacher trainee and I have to submit an assignment.

Students in
high school are still trying to decide who they are now and who they are going to be in the
future.  They need the comfort to be who they are and the freedom to explore who they might be. 
A curriculum that focuses on self-discovery and a teaching staff that understands and
appreciates the unique developmental aspects of adolescence are the key.
