Our Expectations from Parents and Guardians

It becomes imperative for us, parents and teachers, to continue to motivate as well as guide children in facing the challenges ahead. This can only be possible if we work in union. We also seek your valuable cooperation in order to inculcate discipline in our children. We look forward to healthy and positive support from your end so that children are not penalised for your oversight. Together we can and we will make a difference in our children.

  1. Parents are expected to co-operate with the school authorities in enforcing regularity and discipline. Please see that your children prepare their lessons and complete their homework regularly. Parents should take an active and helpful interest in the activities of the school.
  2. Parents and families play a significant role in affecting a child's confidence and motivation to become a good student. Encourage your ward to take balanced interest in Studies, Co-curricular activities and Sports.
  3. Parents are expected to go through the school calendar carefully and make a note of important dates and events, especially parents- teacher meets, and tests and assessments.
  4. Children should do their homework by themselves. They should not be helped in it by parents or by tutors unless they really need it. It is important that the children develop a habit of studying and working on their own.

In such cases, the permission of the Principal is mandatory. However, under unavoidable circumstances the child would be allowed to go with parents only, for security reason.
  16. Irregularity in attending school is a major disruptive force in student life. It leads to a lack of sustained interest in studies.

  43. Your attention is drawn to the fact that criticism of a teacher/s or school in the presence of the child causes him / her to lose respect for the same and will hinder his / her progress.
  44. Parents too need to look beyond their child's academic performance and should seek an honest opinion regarding his shortcomings. An insight into the psychology of the parents and the ability to evaluate the kind of atmosphere they are providing to the child at home.
  45. The main purpose of disciplining the child is to make sure that he develops the right set of moral values, attitude, aptitude and manners. Children themselves are unable to identify the need for rules and regulations but it is the responsibility of the parent to make sure that the child isn't getting away with too many liberties. An excess of freedom at one point in childhood could backfire as the child develops a mind of his own and doesn't respect the opinion of his parents/teachers anymore.
  46. Children tend to pick up abusive language / foul words from the media and different sources without understanding their meaning. We are taking requisite measures to counsel and check them at our end and request you to take corrective action at your end too.
  47. As the medium of instruction in the school is English, children should be helped to follow their classes daily and intelligently by a certain amount of English conversation at home.
  48. Parents should limit the amount of time spent by children, watching the television and using computer. They should help the child choose the appropriate programs for viewing. Some TV or computer programs help raise the level of curiosity in certain subjects and act as a resource for the lessons being taught in school.
  49. Please do ensure that no net - surfing by your ward is done at home without your supervision and close monitoring.
  50. Rules aren't just for the child. The parents should be sincere enough to present themselves as good role models. Once this is established, the child has practically no excuse to break the rules or consistently disobey his parents.
  51. Your child is watching you Give him a favorable environment at home to grow and develop into a healthy individual.
