In view of the closure of educational institutions a lot of initiatives were undertaken by Directorate to mitigate the academic loss of students including online classes, tele-classes, radio classes, tele counselling helpline and monthly PTMs wherein parents of the students are also brought on board to solve the issues being faced by the children. Continuing with this objective the key points highlighted and discussed with parents in Tuesday’s interaction were Academic achievements / internal assessment, child protection, child sexual abuse with reference to POCSO- ACT 2012 and cyber security.
