Teacher should be humble, should create a good example for the students:

- Teachers play a very important role in a child's life. Teachers are the real role models. Whatever the teacher thinks, the way the teacher acts and the responses teachers give affects a child to a large extent. The teachers, especially in the primary classes, spend more time with children as most of the times they deal with an individual child, as children are developing their foundational skills. (Comparatively, in higher classes the more focus will be on the subject teaching rather than individual child learning observation).

The teachers should be very caring and show concern towards the children. As a learner, child irrespective of the IQ and the learning skills come up with doubts related to their subjects. Sometimes children ask a doubt, which could be silly to us. In order for the children to get clarification on their doubts, there should be a good rapport between the children and the teachers. The children should not be afraid to talk to the teachers and whenever the student comes to the teacher to clarify the doubt the teacher should welcome the child so that children can clarify the doubts whenever it arises. This way the subject related concepts of children are clearer and strong.

As human being, we are balancing our personal life and professional life. We have a lot of personal life/family-related frustrations and stress. It is very difficult to keep that stress not to interfere in our school affairs. If you have difficult times at family that stress and the pressure tend to impact our professional life. Sometimes or even most of the times it happens that we tend to vent out our frustration and stress on our students. Few studies have focused on this aspect where the teachers' personal life pressures and stresses are vented out on children through corporal punishment, or by behaving rudely or even for that matter slapping the child without a strong reason.

As per a few studies, the love of a subject in a child is also connected to the teachers' behaviour and interaction with the child. When children like the subject it also means that somewhere the child also likes the teacher. It could also be, the way the teacher has taught the subject, the way the teacher has showcased the importance of the subject/concept.

As teaching professionals, we have to make sure that we behave politely with our students and completely we should avoid verbal yelling and nonverbal frustration like staring etc. When we have a good relationship with the students the students also will co-operate with us during our classes and this way both of us can benefit from the learning.

What Your Child Needs Most From You as a Parent:

- > Parents often feel trapped in a cycle of buying educational toys and enforcing strict daily routines. > In reality, true childhood development comes down to three human essentials that money cannot buy. > Modern parents face constant pressure to optimize every hour of their child's day with schedules and gadgets. > Real emotional growth happens simply through connection, space to discover, and a calm presence in moments of chaos. The Three Invisible Essentials of Early Childhood Modern parents are overwhelmed with endless advice, conflicting philosophies, and endless product recommendations. In the rush to optimize every moment of our children's lives, we risk missing the core elements that actually build confidence and emotional security. The truth is, young children do not need perfectly structured days or the latest gadgets; they need three essential, human experiences that only a responsive parent can provide. 1. Intention 2. Commitment 3. Puttin...

Seven key differences between Parenting in India and Dutch:

- A Dutch mother, Ivana, recently shared her experiences living in Mumbai for nine years, highlighting seven key differences between parenting in India. She emphasises that neither approach is "better" or "worse," but rather they involve different trade-offs. Key Differences in Parenting: According to her viral reflections on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWJv7RLDM-z/), the primary contrasts include: * Community vs. Solo Marathon: In the Netherlands, parenting often feels like a "solo marathon". In Mumbai, she experiences a "real village" where family, neighbours, and the building community are always available to help. * Independence vs. Interdependence: Dutch culture raises children to be "fierceley independent," such as cycling to school alone at age eight. Indian parenting focuses on interdependence and being part of a larger, supportive system. * Child-Friendly Public Spaces: She notes that children in India are acce...

If you are in your office more than 2 hours without walking, you are not leading the school. You are managing paperwork:

- A school is not run from a desk. It is led from the corridors. In business they call it MBWA — Management By Walking Around. In schools we call it the Walking Headteacher Principle. The best heads are never hidebound in the office. An office-bound head hears reports about the school. A walking head sees the real school. Why You Must Walk: 1. You See The Invisible Child From your office you only see the naughty child who is sent to you. When you walk at break, at toilet time, in the library, you see the quiet child alone, the bullied child, the hungry child. The child who will never knock on your office door. That 2-minute eye contact in the corridor can save a life. 2. You Kill Problems When They Are Small Office head: Hears about a fight after it happened. Walking head: Sees the push, the swear word, the group forming in the corner, and stops it with a "Hello, boys, everything okay?" before it becomes a fight. Discipline drops by 30-40% just by visible presence. 3. Staff ...

The final two steps — Analyse and Prevent — are where institutional improvement happens:

- A parent sends a message at 9:00 in the morning: “My child’s notebook has not been checked properly for the last two weeks.” Nobody responds. At 1:00 PM, the parent sends another message. Still no clear response. The next morning, the parent calls reception. Reception says: “We will inform the coordinator.” The coordinator is busy. Another day passes. By the third day, the original notebook issue is no longer the real problem. Now the parent is angry because: Nobody listened Nobody took ownership Nobody communicated Nobody gave a timeline Nobody closed the issue A small academic concern has become a trust problem. This is how many school complaints escalate. Not because the original issue was impossible to solve. Because the school did not have a system to detect, own, resolve, and close the issue early. Strong schools should not only have a Complaint Handling System. They should have a Parent Complaint Prevention System. The objective is different. Complaint handling asks: “How...

(Reframing behavioral challenges into opportunities) - The 'C-DOO' Framework: Redefining Child Behavior from Connection to Ownership:

- C-DOO Framework—Connection, Discipline, Obedience, and Ownership Introduction: Child development and behavior explain how children grow, learn, and express their inner experiences from birth through adolescence. Research shows that early childhood experiences form the literal blueprint for a child’s lifelong brain structure, emotional health, and learning capacity. Modern studies focus heavily on early brain plasticity, the impact of screen time, and how chronic stress affects a child's development. Researchers are also discovering that children learn self-regulation primarily through calm co-regulation with the trusted adults around them. Understanding these scientific insights gives parents and teachers a clear lens to interpret childhood actions accurately. Instead of viewing challenging behavior as simple defiance, adults can recognize it as a signal of unmet needs or incomplete skill development. This shift in perspective helps parents respond with supportive gu...

School Operations Manual:

- A school is a complex organization where multiple activities should co-ordinate in sync. Each stake holder - Management, Teacher, Students, Parents and supportive staff, everyone has an important role to play. All these stake holders need to know their job, roles and responsibilities, and also the structure, policy and procedure of their work. Thus a team has come up with a 'school operations manual' to support schools in designing their school policies and procedures, which will help to strengthen the school system. This manual outlines the significant policies and procedures covering a wide spectrum of activities in a school, starting from affiliation, curriculum planning, extra-curricular activities, value education, school administration, statutory compliances, HR, etc. The core objective of this manual is to communicate, describe and help in implementing the best practices, policies and procedures so as to bring standardisation in our schools through collaboration.

Students learn better in mother tongue; reflection from implementation at Niger:

- One teacher says, “It was really hard to teach under the traditional system. The new curriculum makes it much easier. It is easy for me as a teacher because I can easily pass on the learning to the students. And it is easy for students because they receive everything in their own language". - "When students go home and talk about what they learned, the parents can help them and this motivates everybody even more.” Click to read full article :
