St. Xavier’s is committed to having regular formal and informal communication among the stakeholders of the school. The Principal communicates with the parents from time to time through circulars. Parents are expected to read and follow them carefully.
Effective collaboration between parents at home and teachers in the school is vital to ensure the academic success as well as the holistic growth of children. Therefore, it becomes critically important that an open line of communication and responsive relationship is established between the parents and teachers.
Parents and guardians are invited to interact with the teachers and school administration formally at least once a year. Parents raise issues of importance regarding their children’s education and development. Many good suggestions come up in such meetings which the school authorities strive to follow up.
Parent-teacher conferences are obligatory for Classes XI and XII after their first semester exams. Parents of the Primary School children are invited more frequently for such conferences. Parent teacher conferences at the beginning of the second semester are obligatory for all the students facing academic and discipline-related issues in the school.
Besides the above meetings organised at the school’s initiative, parents are free to visit the school on a working day to meet the teachers to discuss academic and behavioural issues concerning their children. Usually the Vice Principals are available during the first period of the day for such meetings. Parents may set up appointments through the Vice Principals to meet the teachers of their children.
