Education is not a one-size-fits-all venture. Each child has unique learning patterns, interests, strengths, and challenges. To navigate these effectively, a strong bridge must be built between the two most influential figures in a child’s academic life – the parents and the teachers.

At Podar Prep, we’re committed to bridging this gap through our Parent-Teacher Portfolio Meet. This meeting is more than a simple update on your child’s progress; it’s an opportunity for us to share insights about your child’s growth and development. It’s a space where we can discuss strategies to enhance and support their learning journey further.

Our teachers observe your child in our nurturing learning environment, noting their interactions, academic responses, and behaviour. You, on the other hand, provide valuable insights into your child’s experiences and demeanour outside school. When we combine these perspectives, we get a holistic understanding of your child’s development.

This understanding then informs our regular assessments and goal setting. It’s not just about grades; it’s about individual growth, overcoming personal challenges, and celebrating victories, no matter how small.

Regular communication can take many forms, from formal parent-teacher conferences to casual chats at pick-up time, emails, or phone calls. It’s not just about discussing grades or behaviour issues; it’s about sharing triumphs, brainstorming solutions to problems, and aligning expectations and goals.

But remember, it’s a two-way street. Parents should feel comfortable sharing their concerns and insights with teachers, and teachers should be open to feedback and observations from parents. This reciprocal relationship builds trust, respect, and a sense of shared responsibility for the child’s development.

In conclusion, we at Podar Prep bridge the gap between parents and teachers, not just through Parent-Teacher Portfolio meets, but also through events like Kiducation Huddle with Parents, which is an opportunity for parents to visit the centres with their child and talk to teachers professionally and personally to get a better idea about their child’s performance and behaviour.  After all, it takes a village to raise a child, and parents and teachers are the key pillars of this village.
