Description :
Assessment is not just about measuring knowledge but fostering growth and understanding. In view of this, our school hosted an orientation for parents of students in grades VI to VIII, led by our Principal, Mrs. Anita Makkar. The session focused on understanding assessment practices and managing exam stress, balancing academics in adolescence.
Various assessment methods were discussed in the session, with special emphasis on the role of formative and summative assessments for parents’ understanding. This was followed by an enriching session with Dr. Mantosh Kumar, a consultant psychiatrist from Fortis Healthcare, Gurugram, who shared tips and techniques for managing exam-related stress. He provided practical advice on creating a balanced study schedule, encouraging positive study habits, and fostering a supportive home environment.
An interactive Q&A session capped the event, providing parents with valuable insights to support their children~s academic and emotional well-being.
