PSTM (Parent - Student - Teacher Meeting)

Parent-Teacher Meeting

Parent teacher meeting is a prominent and notable feature of the school curriculum. The motive is close interaction of parents with teachers with regard to the progress shown by their wards and finding workable solutions to the problems coming in the way of the development of their wards. The school also conducts special Parent-Teacher Meetings for classes X and XII. All parents must attend the Parent-Teacher Meeting. In case of an extreme situation where the parent cannot attend, written intimation should be provided. If the child is not making the desired progress, parents are welcome to contact the Principal, Vice Principal, Headmistress, Class Teacher or the concerned Subject Teacher so as to discuss remedial measures that can be taken. Such meetings, however, will be arranged on appointments made through the office of the Principal and on no account should parents contact the teachers in their classrooms directly.

Note : Under no circumstances should parents criticise any teacher in the presence of his/her ward, for it adversely affects the overall development of a child to a considerable extent and impedes his/her learning process. The child might develop a critical attitude, get demotivated, and not accord due respect to elders.

Parent’s Role

• Parents should ensure that their wards carry the school diary every day to school.
• The particulars of their ward in the first two pages should be filled in all respects as soon as the Diary is bought.
• Parents should see to it that their ward completes the daily assignment. They should also read and sign any note is sent by the class teacher or the subject teacher. Parents can also communicate with the teacher through the diary. Special pages for the above purpose are provided to be made use of as and when required.
• Parents should ensure that their ward brings the books/notebooks as per the schedule every day.

Orientation Programme for Parents

O P Jindal Modern School conducts an Orientation Programme on 1st April, for the parents of children newly admitted to the school from classes LKG to V.

The beginning of the academic session is the time for the parents to think of their children’s new classes, syllabus, textbooks, evaluation pattern, roles and responsibilities of the children and parents and many other related matters. To provide appropriate guidelines to the parents and to familiarise them with the school’s principles, philosophy and kind of education imparted, OPJMS hosts the Orientation Programme.

The Orientation Programme is organised to apprise them of the school's policy and equip them with firsthand knowledge of the proposed yearly schedule.

The session introduces school functionaries to parents and is also useful for addressing other questions they may have. Attendance at the Orientation Programme is mandatory.
