[DRAFT]

Major Challenges that are currently faced by the school are enumerated as below:-

Classroom Size: Most teachers agree that they cannot effectively teach every student in a

classroom if the class size exceeds about 30.
Poverty: Most teachers agree that they cannot effectively teach every student in a classroom if
the class size exceeds about 30.

Family factors: Students especially from BPL family tend to have the highest dropout rates.

Technology: Divorce, Single Parents, Poverty, and many other issues are great challenges face
by the school. Technology needs to come into the classroom to keep up with the teaching -
learning demands of the 21st century.

Students Attitudes and Behaviour : Problems like apathy, disrespect and absenteeism poses
significant challenges for teachers.

Limitation of time to practice activities other than the school syllabus.

Limited School budget.

Efforts Initiated or the Process of Transformation

Since most of our students are from economically backwards classes, it is the responsibility of
the teachers, staffs, administrator to make them self propelled, self controlled and self guided
persons, who will be able to accept the challenges of life without hesitation after their schooling.
With this view in mind, me and my colleagues consulted all the stakeholders‘ viz. teachers, staffs
and parents and shared our ideas and views and eventually resolve to implement the strategies.
AISECT Enterprises had given opportunity to students to undergo vocational skill training such
as Tailoring, Beauty Culture and General Duty under the expert and Trained Instructors of
AISECT Enterprises for skill training. Students are detailed to the concerned department every
Wednesday and Friday afternoon for the last 2 (two) period along with a Caretaker Teacher.
