Importance of school diary for students
A school diary has been an integral part of schools for ages. It serves as a source of information and mode of communication between school, teachers, students and parents. That is why every school provides a diary to its students. Furthermore, it is mandatory for all the students to carry it to school and to maintain it regularly.
A diary contains personal details of students like name, address, class, blood group and information of their parents. This information is useful for the school and it is even helpful in case of any emergency. Furthermore, a school diary also contains information related to the school’s curriculum, code of conduct, time table, rules & regulations, extra-curricular activities, staff details, school’s overview, etc. A diary also contains spaces to note down important information given by the school and most importantly, students write homework and teacher’s instructions in it. With so much information, a diary is surely important for the students.
Now, let’s have a look at the significance of a diary for students:
Helpful for everyone:
School diary is a very important part of a school. It is helpful for everyone including students, teachers and parents.
Contains staff details
It contains contact numbers of the office, school and teachers so that they can be contacted whenever required. In case of an emergency, parents can easily contact the school using the contact numbers provided in the diary.
Parents stay connected with school teachers
Parents can easily come to know all the activities of school, the progress of their wards, complaints against them, homework provided by teacher and such information through the diary. In the same way, teachers can also communicate with parents via diary notes.
Teachers can write notes in the diary related to an important issue that they wish to bring under the notice of the parents. School diary also contains column for teacher’s and parent’s signature. This helps teachers and parents to stay in contact.
Students learn to plan their studies accordingly
Students note down all the homework and importance instructions in the diary. They learn to fix their priorities according to the amount of work given. Furthermore, they also learn to maintain their diary regularly. In this way, they become organized.
Students and parents can know about the school
As diary contains all the information about the school’s curriculum, so students and parents can understand the school and its environment in a better way.
Record of academic information
Diary is also useful in noting down academic information like syllabus and date sheets of the exams. Every diary contains a time table, which allows students to pack their bag and plan their studies accordingly.
Students learn to be disciplined
A diary remark by the teacher addressing the parents is the biggest fear of a student. No student wants his/her diary to be filled with remarks and some negative notes. This makes them stay punctual and disciplined.
The aforementioned points show the significance of the diary in a school. At, MIT Vishwashanti Gurukul we give importance to a diary.
