Our Ideal School 1

Wards, pupils spend most of the time within a school environment which greatly influence their attitudes, thoughts, beliefs towards later life and moulds them for the future consciously and subconsciously.

A School is a place where we achieve knowledge about the whole world. Not only that, we also learn how to socialize with all sorts of people, know how to speak for ones right, distinguish about manners and learn to be the part of a certain group.


In identifying a good school, your lists should look at;

UNIFORM:
An appropriate school uniform colour should appeal to a child's  age group, texture should be skin-friendly, styles should be simply  and creative.

It must not be biased to any religion, culture. It should encourage unity at every possible way.

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE:
Any Organization what so ever needs to know how authority and responsibility flows.

RELATIONSHIPS:
There should be a cordial relationship between the school and the community close to it, the school activities must be relevant to its immediate environment.

Also good relationship should be between teachers and teachersteachers and parents, school and parents through diverse innovative forums, like Parents Teachers Association (PTA), Parents forums, Open days,other creative programmes

FACILITIES:
A good, spacious field, playground that suit the learning age of the learners

Toys, artistic tools, equipments, laboratories with relevant tools, etc relevant to the child's learning age.

Library, Toy corner, Sick bay, First aid box, Running water, etc

PHYSICAL STRUCTURE:
Classroom blocks, staff rooms shouldn't be far apart, keep the wards close and the more the impact.

Well ventilated environment.

The site for an ideal school must be close to nature. It should be delimited by trees, have a big garden and a field where the students can play.

It should have lockers so that students don’t have to carry their heavy school
bags.

It should have different rooms for different kinds of extra curriculums.

Beside nature the students should also be introduced with science and new technology.

Each class should contain small number of students dependent on the age of the learners, so that the teachers can give more attention to each student.

5 things we want from parents

It takes a village to raise a child. We can't expect teachers to be the only ones educating our children. Research proves that when Mom and Dad become involved in their kid’s school life, grades, behavior and emotional well-being improve. So, if you want to make the teacher’s job a little easier, check out these 5 things teachers want from parents. Read to Your Child “The single most important activity for building the knowledge required for eventual success in reading, is reading aloud to children,” stated the U.S. Department of Education Commission on Reading in 1985. Grab a book, any book, and read to your child at least three times a week. You’ll plant the seeds for a lifetime of reading. Get to Know the Teacher You should be on a first-name basis with your child’s teacher. Ask for the best way to get touch with him or her, such as by phone or email. Be there for open houses and parent-teacher conferences. Don’t be the parent who only shows up when you have a bone to pick. Encourage Friendships Outside of School Classroom learning works best when solid teamwork is in place. Because there isn’t always time for children to get to know one another all that well at school, make sure that your child spends time with classmates outside of school by encouraging playdates and after-school activities. Get Involved With the School Attend school council meetings. Join the school’s PTA. If you work and these school-oriented meetings are scheduled during the day, ask if meetings can occasionally be held at night. Your voice counts— sometimes, it's the only voice that will advocate for your child. When parents unite, they can more readily affect changes in schools. Take Part in School Events Don’t miss school events such as talent shows, science fair nights and seasonal potlucks. Even if your child isn’t playing on the team, why not attend a school sporting event? You’ll help foster an appreciation of school life. Not only will you be helping your child be successful in school, but you'll also be making memories with him along the way. Source:www.education.com
