Mega PTMs, only a concept of private schools earlier, are now held twice a year in 1000 Delhi government schools since 30 July 2016[1]
A report by NCERT states that that parental involvement in Delhi government schools increased by 97% since the introduction of mega PTMs[2]
“We saw more parents than we do when we distribute money (scholarships, etc),” said Principal Kamlesh Bhatia
“I came to the school for my son’s admission in 2014. I never visited the school since then. Even when I wanted to at times, I hesitated. But from 2016, I am attending the PTMs. It helps me to understand my child’s growth and development. I know where we need to focus and also feel good when teachers praise him for doing well in subjects,” Yadav said, adding that although he could not speak English, his son is very good at it and the teacher has praised him for the same in Jan 2020[3:1]
"It is of great help that schools have started taking more initiative to help us understand our children’s progress.”- Sweety Jha, 35, whose daughters study in Class 8 and Class 9 at Sarvodaya Vidyalaya in Begumpur[7]
