Meeting as reported by our teacher:

Frequent parent-teacher meetings keep parents informed and opens up honest 2-way communications. It aids in creating a healthy environment to bring up issues if any.  

Positive connections between parents and teachers are essential in ensuring a positive impact on students' academic potential. Not only will it help students-parents-teachers build trust, but it will also make them feel welcome and part of the Gurukulam family where we strive for the best in every child.

Parents Teacher Meet

28th Sept 2022

Parents Teachers meeting was conducted at school. As always, it was interactive with parents communicating their joy, challenges etc in bringing up their children. 

And how we can mould them to bring out their full potential together.

Thoughts from our teacher below:

Teachers know who their students are, they’ll be able to make good decisions about how and what to teach them. By communicating with parents, teachers collect information about each child’s interests, learning style, and needs that will help them effectively reach those children.

It Makes the School Environment Safer and the Communication with parents about their children’s behavior in school helps teachers to understand why students act   and how they can react appropriately. Parents who participate in schools feel more invested in them as well, which can lead them to be more involved and committed even when their children aren’t in school.

Parents should be involved in the education of their kids at all stages, not just when a problem arises. Through parent teacher meetings, teachers can spot potential issues and they can also collect data about each student, which makes it easier to help individual kids. 

Parent-teacher meetings can encourage students to improve their behavior and academic performance because they know that teachers are watching them and communicating with their parents. Parents who have a chance to discuss the progress of their children with teachers feel more invested in their education and are more likely to help them improve.

It Can Make a Bad Situation Better, Teachers often have to deal with behavior problems, social issues, mental health concerns, and a variety of other problems that arise from their students’ home lives. When teachers talk to the parents in an effort to resolve issues , they are often able to help the students and affect positive change in their lives with the parent-teacher meetings.

The parent-teacher meetings are necessary for the early years when a child’s learning and development are most critical, As the child grows and develops, their communication with teachers about their progress becomes more and more important.
