Online LEARNING
Dear Parents,
The pandemic has forced us to conduct our activities in an unique manner. PBAS has always been a tech-friendly school and it could adapt to the changing environment seamlessly.
Highlights of PBAS ONLINE Learning classes are as follows:
- PBAS has a trained and well qualified team of teachers who impart online teaching to all its students from Pre-Nursery to Class XII.
- Classes are conducted on GMeet and Google Classroom. Teachers are preparing presentation and making use of technology in the best possible manner. Furthermore, regular class work and updates are posted in respective WhatsApp Class groups.
- Teachers give individual attention to their students and regularly conduct online assessment and counselling services. Regular updates about the child’s activity from time to time are given to the parents.
- In PBAS we have always believed in holistic development. We give a great deal of impetus to CO-curricular activities. We have formed online clubs like Nature Club, Cookery club, Science club, Maths club, interact club, Music club, Fitness where children are exposed to concepts in a fun experimental manner.
- We are celebrating most of our social functions and events online. We have got a wonderful motivating feedback from parents that these occasions help them to forget the pandemic worries and makes the whole house participate in the event.
- Special counselling service is provided to parents and students for any issues faced by them.
- Students are encouraged to engage themselves in new hobbies and learn new activities to utilise their extra time judiciously.
It has been observed especially in Junior classes, that parents feel they can make their child skip a year. It has a deep psychological impact.
- Online school is required especially for small children to be accustomed to a structured environment.
- To see children of their own age, enlivens them to become social.
- Trained teachers for Junior classes exactly know when to introduce a concept in a structured manner rather than haphazardly in-home schooling by parents.
- Rich language development takes place in a school with a regular teacher- child interactions.
- If the child would enter Junior KG right away, by skipping Nursery, they will not have the foundation of ‘known to unknown’. “Everything will be unknown. That would put more stress on children.
- In schools, language, social development and emotional quotient of children develop. They learn to wait for their turn before they can speak. They will know that the teacher will follow certain nuances in interaction with them, which their mothers are unlikely to know.
There is a big behavioural shift in the parents’ mindset towards learning online, as they witness their kids benefiting from it. The overall development and progress of a child through the structured teaching-learning process is something to marvel at. Children from the formative stage become technology oriented- which is the call of the day.
PBAS strongly advises parents not to waste an academic year. School is offering various benefits and scholarships to students to continue their studies. Our motive is and always has been prioritising students and their needs.
