The college also believes in a strong interaction between teachers and
the parents. At least once a year, a formal parent-teacher’s meeting is
held. Besides this, at various formal and informal levels, the teachers
are in contact with the parents. For students having irregularities in
attendance, the teachers get in touch with the parents. The parents of
those students who are likely to go into the defaulter’s list, are
informed in advance by personal meeting and their wards are given a
chance to improve, so that their terms can be granted. For any
misbehaviour / misconduct, the Principal meets the guardian / parent
before taking any strict disciplinary measures. This helps to maintain
a discipline, with the humane approach that is required. There is also
a Parents Teachers Association set up to receive feedback from the
parents and to involve them in the growth of the College.
Apart from regular classroom
teaching, the students are provided with many outlets so as to make
their hidden talents flourish. These include the following:
-
Our NCC wing is a strong, active
wing that regularly participates in different events at state and
national levels, such as parades, camps, events, etc. Many of our
