11 Ways to Help Your Child Succeed in School

1.       Attend Parent-Teacher Meets: Kids do better in school when parents are involved in their academic lives. If your child has special learning needs, additional meetings can be scheduled with teachers and other school staff

  1. Visit School, the whatsapp class pages Its website: Know the physical layout of the school building; its grounds, its offices, its halls for different activities, its library, teachers rooms, canteen area etc. It can help you connect with your child when you talk about the school day. On the school website, you can find information about: school, teachers & activities. Each Class teachers maintain their own class groups. Detail homework assignments, test dates, classroom & school events are notified.
  1. Support Homework Expectations: Home work reinforces and extends classroom learning and helps kids practice important study skills.
  1. Teach Organizational Skills: When kids are organized, they can stay

   focused instead of spending time hunting things down and getting sidetracked:

   It includes prioritizing, making and following time tables, organizing own tables

   and racks, teaching them to plan, tracking assignments and home works etc.

  1. Teach Study Skills: Study ahead of time, break down overall tasks into

 smaller, manageable chunks so preparing for a test isn’t overwhelming, teach

 tricks for easy learning, studying with breaks after every 45 minutes or so,

 talking to school counselor/ teacher if the child is too stressed.

  1. Know the Disciplinary Policies: Read the Green book & the School

  Calendar for this. Help school with its discipline policies.

  1. Get Involved: Please volunteer. Parents can get involved in the school by

       volunteering for different events, classes, trips, etc.

  1. Take Attendance Seriously: Take attendance and being on time seriously.
  1. Make Time to Talk About School and their day: Positive words about school

      and teachers from parents/guardian will enhance kids learning at school

  1. Send Your Child to School Ready to Learn: Let them eat and sleep

      and get ready to learn when they come tom school. These will boost your child’s

      attention span, concentration, and memory.

  1. Send your child with a prayer for the child, teachers and school
