PARENTS CAN’T GO TO SCHOOL

Latest Bangalore news

Timings imposed for visits; Movement to ensure minimum interruptions.

In coming days, parents may have to ask for permission before entering school facilities. The education department may soon issue an order to regulate parental entry in the light of recent disruptions and protests.

Tanveer Sait, the minister of primary and secondary education, said: "There are people who come on campus and interrupt activities, we are working on this issue to ensure that these things do not happen, we need to correct schedules for parent visits. They will need to have permission before entering the school campus to meet someone. "

A senior department official said the issue of free entry has become a constant concern for backward schools. "Sometimes, lockout education officials have to intervene to resolve sudden disputes," the source said.

Recently, the education department announced that school and university facilities will be declared "sensitive areas" after a series of complaints have arisen in political activities taking place within the complexes.

The other problem comes from parents struggling for their children. In cases where the couple may have parted with an ongoing custody battle, parents come and start looking for school documents or demand to take their child back with them.

D Shashi Kumar, director and general secretary of the Associated Managements of Private Unided English Medium School in Karnataka (KAMS) said:

"Sometimes when the guardians come and admit a child, the parents go to school later and create problems." Many schools in the city are facing this problem, said Shashi Kumar.

Schools have complained to the education department that there are many parents who intrude and threaten them. Fights over custody of the child, requiring seeing receipts or documents, etc., occur during school hours. This not only disturbs the environment, but also makes it awkward for children whose parents are involved in such activities, said a director of a school in South Bengaluru. "Children are very vulnerable to such things," said the director. Abdul Wajid Khaji, DDPI, Bengaluru North, said: "Recently, a court has ordered a lawsuit against a parent association that was trying to intervene on a fee related issue. If parents have concerns, they should approach management instead to form associations. That's what the HC also said. "
