Guidelines For The Parents

What we expect from you as parents

The school and the home share a joint responsibility for the healthy development of children. This is a function of the quality time children spend at school and at home. While we fulfill our responsibility at school, we request you to consider the following:

• Take keen interest in every day experiences of your child at school. Interact with him/her about what they do at school.
• Be a patient listener and express interest in your child’s development.
• Be encouraging and supportive about every positive initiative your child takes. Know your child’s likes and dislikes.
• Help your child differentiate between desirable and undesirable behaviour. Help him / her to recognize and adopt alternative behaviour for every undesirable behaviour.
• Patiently carry out a dialogue with your child about his/her mistakes.
• Try to maintain a continuum between home and school while disciplining your child.
• Adopt a positive attitude towards every new activity that your child participates at school.
• Be available for your child when he/she needs your support and guidance.
• Limit the hours of viewing television and engage them in active outdoor play activities.
• Trust your child and give him/her unconditional positive regard. Parent / authorized guardians are expected to carry the parent I-Card when they come to collect the child from bus stop or school premises, failing which the child will not be handed over.
• Both Parents are requested to attend the Parent-Facilitator Interactions and all events of the school where their presence is expected. Presence is requested by the scheduled time.
