Few changes for the next academic year

Greetings from Glenrich School Dhaka! Hope you had a great Eid. I believe the students are giving their best in their Board Exams too. My heartfelt prayers are with them. I am writing to inform you about some important changes that will be implemented in our school for the board classes. Starting from the next academic year, we are reducing the school timings for board classes. The new timings will be from 8:20 am to 1:50 pm. The decision has been taken after careful consideration and feedback from the parents and students. We believe that this will help students to better manage their time and focus more on self-study and exam preparation. Additionally, regular attendance is critical for academic success and ensures that students do not miss out on important classroom instruction and activities. Therefore, we request your cooperation in ensuring that your child attends school regularly. I would like to inform you that 60% attendance will be mandatory for the students to be eligible to register for the Cambridge Board exam and to participate in any Interschool or other major activities like TEDx and MUN. I would like to assure you that we are committed to providing the best possible education to your child and that these changes are aimed at enhancing their academic performance. Thank you for your constant support and cooperation. Regards Tarana Majid Ahmed Senior School Head
