Dhaka - School Report Question and Answers
Describe the general climate of the grade level that you teach or your child attends:
I'll speak about our Kindergarten experience, but in general this is the "climate" for all the grades we've participated in. The school is a warm, welcoming place. The teachers and administrators are genuinely pleased to see the kids arrive each day. In kindergarten, they were encouraged to think deeply about the discussions they were having and the activities they were involved in. The teacher we had made reaching all of the kids, regardless of their ability, look seamless. I volunteered a bit in the class and was amazed at how broad the range of abilities was, yet the teacher had no problem making topics appropriate to all. I also really liked that they had a "Peace Rug." Kids would come in from recess and tell the teacher that they had had a problem with another kid and the kids would go sit on the "Peace Rug" together to work it out. The kids were encouraged to treat each other kindly, fairly and respectfully. - Aug 2015
It's a "feel good" school - but there is little to no expectation for learning basic fundamental or accountability in math, writing, spelling, science. - Mar 2015
