Teacher-parents Meeting

I am all the while not very keen in teacher meet session. One main reason I don't really look forward is because it is more tune towards teacher informing you how well or bad your child has done in terms of marks. I cannot deny academic results is important but I am more interested in my child's well being in school.

Our children spend most of their time in school. Who their friends are, what and how they learn in school, are they fortunate enuogh to have good teachers etc are far more important than academic results. 

I recalled once I attended a session in my girl's primary school, the teacher practically has nothing to say. The session ended in just 2 minutes. I guessed the teacher was just going through the motion. 

My daughter is lucky enough to have a very good form teacher. He has helped my girl adapted to her secondary school. Very caring and trust worthy teacher.

Like today, during the meeting session, he told my girl that he is very happy to see the big improvement she had achieved. His expression was so genuine and sincere!! Encouraged her to play as well as study during the school holiday to prepare for the year end exam. 

Today session is the most meaningful and sincere one that I have attended so far.
