Disciplinary Committee in Zakir Hossain High School:

Swanirvar run 14 per-primary and 4 primary schools. We also gave regular imputs to many ICDS, Sishu Siksha Kendra and Govt Primary schools. One of our main activities was to motivate students to form committees in schools with the responsibilities of cleanliness, Drinking water, sport, library, cultural activities etc.
We also gave inputs to 21 High Schools on Environment Science. We persuaded the Headmasters and Head mistress of these institutions about the importance of student committees in Classroom management as well as school management. We motivated the students and now in many schools student’s committee with the responsibilities of cleanliness, cultural, news, sports, environment management and disciplinary had been formed.
Zakir Hossain High School (one of our partner High School) had a major problem in classroom management. Most of the upper class students (class-IX-X) left the school during the Tiffin time on regular basis. They left the school to take the tuition during the school hour. Another problem was the use of cell phone in the classes. Most of the student brought their cell phones and many of them stated ringing during the class time. That made huge distraction and chaos.
At this situation, the Headmaster discussed with the disciplinary committee members. He requested the committee members to intervene and to stop school leaving during the tiffin time; he also requested them to persuade all the students not to use cell phone in school premises.
The disciplinary committee members persuaded the all the students not to leave school without proper reason. They identified the students who leave during the tiffne time and hold a counseling session with them. They also put posters in each class on the prohibition of cell phone use in the school premises. Presently, the unauthorized school leaving had been reduced remarkable and no one was using cell phone in school.
In the follow up meeting, the Headmaster expressed his gratitude to the student committee members also thanked Swanirvar for motivating the students to form such committees.
