Welcome to the Parent-Teacher Meetings (PTMs) page at Bengal International School (BIS). We believe that effective communication and collaboration between parents and teachers are vital for the holistic development and academic success of our students. PTMs provide a platform for open dialogue, sharing feedback, discussing progress, and fostering a strong partnership between parents and our dedicated teaching staff. Here's what you need to know about PTMs at BIS:

 

1. Purpose and Importance:

   - PTMs serve as an opportunity for parents and teachers to come together, exchange valuable information, and discuss the overall growth and well-being of students.

   - They offer insights into a student's academic performance, behaviour, strengths, areas of improvement, and any additional support required for their development.

 

2. Schedule and Invitations:

   - PTMs are scheduled at regular intervals throughout the academic year and are typically communicated well in advance.

   - Parents receive official invitations, either through students or digital communication platforms, specifying the date, time, and mode of the meeting (in-person or virtual).

 

3. Individualized Attention:

   - PTMs provide a dedicated time slot for each parent to discuss their child's progress with the respective subject teachers or class teachers.

   - Teachers share comprehensive updates on academic performance, assessments, assignments, and overall behaviour, addressing any concerns or queries raised by parents.

 

4. Two-Way Communication:

   - PTMs promote open and constructive communication between parents and teachers.

   - Parents are encouraged to share their observations, concerns, and insights about their child's learning style, social interactions, or any external factors that may influence their performance.

   - Teachers, in turn, provide valuable feedback, suggestions, and guidance to support students in their academic journey.

 

5. Progress Reports and Assessments:

   - During PTMs, parents receive detailed progress reports, which include academic grades, assessments, and comments from subject teachers.

   - Teachers explain the grading system, assessment methods, and academic expectations, ensuring parents have a clear understanding of their child's performance.

 

6. Action Plans and Support:

   - PTMs facilitate the development of personalized action plans to address any academic or behavioral concerns.

   - Teachers and parents collaborate to identify areas of improvement, set goals, and establish strategies to support the student's progress.

 

7. Beyond Academics:

   - PTMs also provide a platform to discuss the holistic development of students, including their participation in co-curricular activities, sports, and character-building initiatives.

   - Teachers share updates on extracurricular events, competitions, and opportunities for students to enhance their skills and talents outside the classroom.

 

We believe that PTMs play a crucial role in building a strong school-home partnership, fostering a positive learning environment, and nurturing the overall well-being of our students. We highly encourage all parents to actively participate in PTMs to stay engaged in their child's education and contribute to their growth.

We look forward to meeting you during PTMs and working together to provide the best possible support and guidance for your child's educational journey at BIS.
