Assessment and Parent - Teacher Interaction
The best Assessment is one where the child known's the criteria of assessment before doing the task. This requires a thoughtful and mindful approach along with advance planning and preparation by the Teacher. All assessments in SIS subscribe to this criterion based transparent methodology and not just based on marks alone.
After every topic, a review is done and the performance of the student is noted. The aim is to ensure that students have understood the course work, developed an interest in the subject, are curious to know more and do not resort to rote learning.
As such, the students are assessed continuously and on a timely basis so that appropriate feedback can lead to correction and improvement; with all subject teachers giving a detailed report at the end of every academic term. The Class Teacher, the concerned Section coordinator and the Principal form the Team to continuously monitor each child's learning and performance.
Parent-Teacher Interaction is practiced very seriously and regularly as well believe that the School and the Parents are 'partners' in the responsibility of imparting quality education. Therefore, Parent-Teacher Meetings are scheduled on a regular basis and throughout the year at appropriate intervals.
