Jalandhar, November 1
With an aim to give a fillip to the state government’s ‘Sikhiya Sudhar Muhim’, the Education Department has announced to hold a two-day parent-teacher meeting (PTM) for the students of government school of classes I to XII on November 2 and 3. The PTM will be held both virtually as well as in schools while adhering to the Covid-19 guidelines.
Apart from interacting with parents to apprise them of the performance of their wards, the teachers will also take feedback on online education and lectures being streamed on TV/radio, social media platforms such as YouTube and WhatsApp and other applications and the use of Punjab Educare app.
Quality improvement approach
- Teachers will sensitise the parents about the Punjab Achievement Survey and how it will help in improving the teaching-learning methodologies, thus bringing about qualitative improvements in school education.
As per officials of the Education Department, the purpose of holding this PTM is to make parents aware of various activities going on in the schools. Besides, teachers will also inform parents about various upcoming competitive and scholarship exams like National Talent Search Examination (NTSE) and The National Means -cum- Merit Scholarship Examination (NMMS), respectively.
“The teachers will ask the parents to motivate their wards to appear in such examinations and participate in all class activities,” said officials, adding that posters and videos are being shared by media coordinators in WhatsApp groups and on Facebook to encourage parents’ participation tomorrow.
