Gurugram, 6th April. Education is a partnership, and orientation helps parents become active participants in the educational journey of their children. Clear and consistent communication with parents leads to positive results for students, parents, and teachers alike. To foster greater parental involvement in their child’s development, the school organized an Orientation Programme for parents of classes VI-IX on April 5. The session provided valuable information about the teaching-learning process, equipping parents to actively contribute to their child’s academic success and overall growth.
Parents were provided with an overview of the school curriculum, which included updates on students’ board results, the school’s achievements in various educational areas, life skills training, and the code of conduct. The examination criteria for the academic session were also discussed. Furthermore, parents were informed about the introduction of innovative teaching methods, along with the integration of vocational education and skill-based clubs and subjects. They were also briefed on the use of ICT and the launch of the Metaverse 360 VR program for classes VI-VIII.
To foster a holistic approach to education, the Health and Wellness Programme engaged parents in activities that highlighted the significance of physical and mental well-being, under the visionary mentorship of Dr. Alka Saxena, Deputy Director, Health & Wellness, BBGS. Parents explored key initiatives of the Health and Wellness Programme and participated in an experiential session to develop essential skills for emotional regulation, self-awareness, and effective decision-making. To extend this learning, parents received a handout, “Mind Matters” as a practical guide to thought, feeling and behaviour cycle, highlighting the impact of mindful parenting on a child’s well-being.
The parents were informed about the initiatives taken by the Learning and Development Cell to enhance students’ academic progress. This comprehensive orientation session provided them with a better understanding of the school’s curriculum strategy, ensuring their children have a fulfilling educational journey. The program emphasized the vital role of collaboration between parents and teachers in nurturing a child’s growth, helping them develop the self-assurance and determination to overcome any obstacle in life.
