The dedication and sincerity by which they work every day is commendable. The regular training and updating they undergo in and out the school premises make them sharper in their vision in dealing with the students.<\/p>\n<p>The practice of&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Don Bosco\u2019s Preventive system of education<\/span>, with it\u2019s three pillars namely&nbsp;<em>reason<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>religion<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>kindness<\/em>&nbsp;has improved the effectiveness of the educators. The understanding of \u2018Salesian Accompaniment\u2019, a lively participation in the world of the young and a personal interest shown in each one has brought in efficiency. The teachers therefore, accompany the young, relates empathetically with them, stresses the interiorization of values, educates to responsibility in daily life and seeks ever-new ways of being present.<\/p>\n<p>Timely incentives make people work with enthusiasm and vigour. The amount of hard work the staff put in is recognized in all possible ways.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The WOW cards, \u2018Employee of The Year Award\u2019 and \u2018Star Performer of the Year Award\u2019&nbsp;<\/span>were introduced to appreciate the star performers among the staff.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, we operate an open-door policy of communication whereby an intervention is urgent, it can be done immediately.<\/p>\n<p>Hazard Vulnerability Capacity &amp; Risk Assessment&nbsp;has been done by an external agency. The&nbsp;CCTV system with sufficient&nbsp;Cameras, Public address system, Fire Safety Systems&nbsp;in the School campus are all functional and maintained regularly.&nbsp;Personal details&nbsp;of students, staff, parents, Alumni, drivers &amp; conductors of contract buses and private vans have been collected and&nbsp;Identity cards&nbsp;have been issued to all.<\/p>\n<p>Thus we have ensured that the school is indeed a safe space and as far as possible, a happy place for each child.<\/p>\n<p>Our&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Discipline Policy<\/span>&nbsp;aims to create a safe and happy learning environment for the children while they are in school, teaching them appropriate behaviour and helping them become independent and responsible people.<\/p>\n<p>Under the&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">POCSO Act<\/span>&nbsp; and&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">DBA\u2019s own \u2018 CHILD PROTECTION POLICY<\/span>\u2019 we ensure that every student has the right to be safe in school, be treated with compassion and to hear and be heard. Therefore, any action by any student or adult that infringes upon the rights will result in serious consequences.<\/p>\n<p>While there are clear consequences for not following rules,&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">appreciation for following rules,&nbsp;<\/span>is just as, if not more important. Hence, along with the negative remarks page, a&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">PAGE FOR POSITIVE FEEDBACK<\/span>&nbsp;is incorporated in the school diary also. Teachers throughout the year put in positive remarks for students that show respect and regard for rules or even improvement in any aspect of their behaviour. Awarding of various&nbsp;Badges to students&nbsp;was introduced to encourage better performance.<\/p>\n<p>THE&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEE<\/span>&nbsp;of the school comprises of staff members that ensure student discipline at all levels. The teachers maintain a record in the student\u2019s diary and oversee lower level issues that disrupt classroom learning. The Disciplinary Committee members deal with serious issues whenever a student is found to consistently disrespect the rules of the school.<\/p>\n<p>An&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ANECDOTAL RECORD<\/span>&nbsp;of the student in the computer database stores a factual account of the incident in which the student was involved. The name of the observer\/staff member, suggestions by the same, Principal\u2019s Comments and actions taken are also noted.<\/p>\n<p>For serious issues, the Disciplinary Committee meets with the School Principal and Vice Principal to address the issue. If need be, the parents are called and informed of the issue and a joint decision is taken for the welfare of the student. This new system has greatly helped to reduce behavioural problems among students.<\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">SCHOOL COUNSELLOR and SPECIAL EDUCATOR&nbsp;<\/span>meet the students on the recommendation of the Principal\/staff to counsel them and take sessions to animate the students.<\/p>\n<p>There is one&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">TEACHER CO-ORDINATOR<\/span>&nbsp;assigned at the Junior, Middle and Senior School level to co-ordinate personal attention and care of the students, scholastic needs and Leadership is the capacity to transform vision into reality.<\/p>\n<p>Our teachers are all leaders.<\/p>\n<p>They walk beside, they elicit greatness in others, they harness courage in themselves and in others, they innovate, they empower and they care deeply.<\/p>\n<p>We are indebted to all our teaching and support staff for their dedication and the selfless investment of themselves in educating our students and in bringing our vision into a reality.<\/p>\n<p>Every pupil is expected to work hard and excel in academics. Weak students are supported to get back on track.&nbsp; Every class teacher sets targets accordingly for their pupils.<\/p>\n<p>We now have in place&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">CAMPUSCARE,&nbsp;<\/span>a data tracking system from KG to class XII whereby we can assess the progress of each of the students regularly.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">PERIODIC TESTS<\/span>&nbsp;are held for students four times a year. Each teacher can then ascertain whether a pupil is progressing satisfactorily, or whether someone requires extra support or monitoring.&nbsp; Parent Teacher meetings &amp; Report days help the interaction between parents and teachers.<\/p>\n<p>The Alumni too support the school through special classes and career guidance sessions.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">REMEDIAL CLASSES<\/span>&nbsp;are taken by subject teachers regularly assisted by gifted students.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">In-house publications<\/span>&nbsp;in the form of compiled worksheets, question papers, crosswords, quizzes, etc. ensure an in-depth testing of the student\u2019s knowledge throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>We all work together to guide and educate and foster the Bosconians in our care. &nbsp;Studies have shown that the most successful students are those who have good family support as well as school support throughout their time in school.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing ventured, nothing gained.<\/p>\n<p>These words have a great deal in common with what we hope that our students will achieve in the schools of our province. Ultimately, we want our students to develop the confidence to challenge themselves and take healthy risks.<\/p>\n<p>Stepping outside one\u2019s comfort zone is where true growth takes place. The desire to take this risk comes from knowing that they have supportive teachers and staff.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Health and Physical Education (HPE<\/span>)<\/p>\n<p>Health is often a state of physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Health and Physical Education (HPE<\/span>)&nbsp;has been introduced with the aim of holistic development of the child, leading to a well-balanced individual in all walks of life. Daily a period is allotted for coaching in games or physical fitness or social service. A \u2018Health and Activity Card\u2019 is maintained to keep the record of all activities of health and physical education of each student.<\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Subject Enrichment activity<\/span>&nbsp;conducted for each subject makes every student give a challenge to their potentials and excel in all possible ways.

The school focuses on the overall development of the students by conducting various competitions at regular intervals. Dancing Super Stars, Voice of Don Bosco, Speech Competitions in English and Hindi, Sanskrit Shloka Competition, Spelling Bee, Creative Writing in Hindi and English, Drawing and Painting, Fancy Dress Competition are to name a few.

These initiatives give the Bosconians a glimpse into world of the poor, sensitizes them and helps them to develop a sense of gratitude towards the Almighty.<\/p>\n<p>Like all great Don Bosco Schools in India, we too have our dreams, ambitions and aspirations. We hope to convert these goals into tangible realities in the days to come.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Conclusion<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Shirley Bassey, one of the most popular female vocalists in Britain, is famous for saying<\/p>\n<p>\u201cyou don\u2019t get older, you get better\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Don Bosco School, Alaknanda has achieved significant milestones in the past years.<\/p>\n<p>We have not done it alone.
