Teachers should openly communicate with parents to improve student performance and school climate. There are many ways for teachers to communicate beyond scheduled conferences, such as providing clear expectations, consistent updates, and welcoming parents in the classroom and school. Effective teacher-parent communication includes making initial contact, outlining communication methods, addressing issues promptly, documenting student progress, encouraging involvement in school organizations, utilizing parent volunteers, respecting diversity, and educating parents on media impacts.
Schools and teachers want to develop partnership with parents. Strong communication is fundamental to this partnership. So, teachers must continue to develop and expand skills required to build a strong partnership.
Children spend more of their waking hours with their teachers than with their parents, so it's vital to consider the relationship between the most important adults in your child's life. Teachers can teach more effectively and children learn better when there is healthy communication between the home and the classroom.

How to establish healthy parents teacher relationshipAvinash Fofalia
Children spend the majority of their day with either teachers or parents. Studies have shown that children whose parents-teacher relationship is healthy, perform well academically. Successful education of the child in all spheres needs a solid partnership between the parent and the teacher. Teachers benefit from having an inside view of the child’s psyche. On the other hand, parents are better equipped to academically support their children at home. It is an ideal, win-win situation for everyone involved.

Creating Parent- Teacher Partnership in Promoting Learningiosrjce
Children and young people are proud of their learning, their progress, attainment and achievements.
Their work is displayed well in classrooms, in public areas and where possible in the wider community.
Learners and their families receive supports through the provision of effective behaviour support programmes.
It is no news to proffer a way to letting the pupils/students learn appropriately for better future for them but be
determined to achieve the fact that tomorrow is more promising than today if excellent partnership is built
between parents and teachers for promoting children’s learning. This paper sets out to find out how parents and
teachers network and form synergy to provide an enhancement for school students or pupils to learn
appropriately and positively for learning goals to be achieved. In conclusion, a range of formal and informal
activities contribute to the development of positive attitudes and self-assurance amongst learners.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Teacher To Parent Communication
1. Teacher to Parent Communication
Students perform better in school when teachers openly communicate
with parents, when parents become actively involved in their children's
education and when a healthy school climate is maintained. Close
communications with parents and strong leadership skills from the
teacher can significantly improve the school climate, educational
experience, and follow the students throughout their lives.
There are a number of ways that teachers can communicate with
parents rather than relying on the scheduled parent-teacher
conferences or waiting until a bullying or harassment situation occurs.
Creating clear boundaries, ground rules and strong respectable
relationships will foster positive and committed strategies when
problems arise. Teachers and parents must create positive behaviors
and clear expectations students can obtain and comprehend. The
teacher-parent relationship must set a good example by following the
same expectations used for the students and with the same values
outlined in the school's rules. The following guidelines will assist and
facilitate positive, clear expectations for all involved while contributing
to a safe school climate. These tips for communication and organization
are the first steps in the prevention of behavioral issues, school climate
control, bullying, harassment, sexual harassment, bias-based
harassment, discrimination, age, gender and cultural sensitivities.
Key points to effective teacher to parent communication
Open the lines of communication: Teachers should welcome
meeting their students' parents early in the school year. Making
an effort to do this will help the teacher better understand the
student and parent. Understanding the families' dynamics
positively supports the education of the student. Inform parents
how you teach and manage your classroom. Clearly and kindly set
your classroom boundaries. Be tactful, flexible, clear and honest.
Being respectful, honest and direct will help set the atmosphere
and expectations of your parents.
Outline communication expectations: Begin the year with both an
open house and welcome letter. Sponsor a school wide open
house where everyone can meet and hear from all the
departments in the school. Principal, teacher, unified arts
teachers, school organizations, bus and lunch programs.
Communicate both verbally and also in a hand out that parents
2. can refer to at a later date. Include contact information such as
email address, school telephone number, address, website, key
personnel, the best time for contacting and who they should
contact for specific issues. Discuss and outline appropriate times
and desired ways of contact. Inform parents when guest speakers
like bully prevention programs are going on, encourage parents to
talk to the student about the program at home. Make classroom
expected behavior ongoing conversation with students and
parents.
Consistent and organized communication: Supply consistent,
scheduled and organized communication such as written,
newsletters, teacher's website or email on a weekly basis. Clearly
outline to parents and students the school and classroom
expectations. Inform parents what organizations and policies are
available and make them accessible. Along with frequent
classroom newsletters include: Principal's newsletter, PTO/PTA
newsletters, school websites, email addresses, year at a glance,
changes in the schedule, how the grading system works and
school homework hotlines/websites. Parents and students need to
understand how and where to get their questions answered. Lines
of communication must always be practiced so when parents and
students have a concern, they do not become frustrated searching
for an answer or trying to understand how to communicate with
the teacher. Defuse defensive behavior by clearly stating your
intentions, rules and process.
Initial and ongoing face to face meetings and encounters: Parent-
teacher conferences are often scheduled at the time of the first
report card in the school year. For parents and teachers, this is a
chance to talk one-on-one about the student. The parent-teacher
conference is a good opportunity to review the partnership
between student, parent and teacher but should not be the first
and only face to face encounter especially if there are problems or
issues that will take more than the fifteen minutes allotted.
Beyond the open house, teachers and staff should be visible,
available, and welcoming to parents and students during school
visits, drop off and pick up times. For the students; teachers, staff
and administration should make themselves visible in hallways,
during the changing of classes, recesses, lunch and dismissal.
Staff should be identifiable immediately with nametags or
employee identification badges.
Documentation: Beyond grades, keep accurate records of
handouts, parent letters and on individual student communication,
such as difficult, unusual or disruptive behavior, grades, missing
assignments, outstanding behaviors, telephone and written
3. communications with parents. Address your concerns early. Listen
to what your parent and students have to say about respective
bullying and harassment. Partner with your principal, assistant
principal, school counselor, or a respected past teacher for advice
or their experience and understanding if problems arise. Let
parents know of potential concerns and always balance this with
the positive attributes you are observing. Parents should get more
positive information than negative about their children.
School and Student Organizations: Participate and encourage
parents to join parent-teacher organizations such as PTO, PTA and
the Booster Clubs. Teachers can enhance parent communication
by participating in these organizations. As all parents do not get
actively involved, not all teachers need to attend. Assigning
consistent school representation is vital. In larger schools teacher
representative from each class or department can be responsible
for communication between the organizations members and rotate
on an annual basis. Attend school sponsored events or host a
classroom project designed to get parents involved. Encourage
students to be involved in school activities such as Civil Rights
groups and peer leadership groups. Be consistent in attendance
and visible.
Volunteers and Teamwork: Depending upon parent's availability,
interests, and the needs of the school, the opportunities are
endless. Some suggestions include: chaperones, fundraising, hall
and lunchroom monitoring, tutoring, copying, library aides,
classroom speaker on a specific topic of interest, organizing paper
to go home, typing, and concession worker at school events.
Teachers should take stock of their parents' skills and interests to
volunteer and ask the parent how they can volunteer. Spend time
organizing your classroom and find task or projects that parents
can do weekly. Build a team with you at the helm. The tasks are
endless, teachers can focus on the students and parents feel
engaged. Increase adult supervision assist in decreasing bullying
and harassment.
Understanding diversity: Understand and address cultural issues
in your community, school and classroom. Acknowledged and
respected behavior should be consistently demonstrated to
parents and students. Respectfully leave personal opinions out of
the school climate. This behavior will positively affect parents and
students.
Media Impact: Encourage and educate parents on media impact.
Media need not be violent or disruptive to affect the learning
process for students and also their communication skills. Work
with parents to encourage decreasing the time spent on video
4. games and television with more time allocated to reading and
participation in projects, whether school or community.
