Role of Parents/ Guardians
Home and school environment are both equally important for the overall growth and development of a child. Accordingly, role of parents/guardians becomes a critical factor and hence we expect them to co-operate as per guidelines listed as under:
- Parents should go through the school diary/calendar and take due note of important dates & events like PTM’s Test Schedules, Examination Schedules etc.
- Parents should invariably attend the scheduled Parent-Teacher Meeting (PTMs) to get the firsthand knowledge of the progress of their wards. Parents are requested to visit school only in formal Indian/knowledge of the progress of their wards. Parents are requested to visit school only in formal Indian/Western outfits.
