170 million children victims of poor school performance
Poor school performance affects around 170 million Indian children between six to fourteen years of age. The condition includes poor grades, failure to complete tasks, careless errors and failure to follow rules.
AROUND 170 million Indian children between the age of six to fourteen years suffer from poor school performance (PSP), which includes poor grades, failure to complete tasks, careless errors and failure to follow rules. Of these children, about 75% of poor readers who are not identified until they reach third grade never catch up, regardless of the length and type of remedial services they receive.
This was disclosed recently by Dr Praveen Suman, a developmental paediatrician with the Ganga Ram Hospital, New Delhi, at a parenting workshop at Bal Bharati Public School, Gangaram branch, in the capital recently.
Dr Praveen said, “It is a common presentation but early intervention with school and parental support can make a difference to the life of children with PSP.”
Participating at the workshop, which was held under the aegis of Synapse Services, Dr Niru Kumar, psychologist and parent counsellor, covered the topic of building self-esteem in children. She said, “Parents need to update their parenting skills to raise healthy and cooperative children and teens. If parents want their children to be able to survive, thrive and compete in today’s world, they need to prepare their children by using the most effective and modern approaches to parenting.”
Dr Syed Misbahuddin, director of Synapse Services, had unveiled the Synapse Parenting Programme at the workshop. The parenting programme includes monthly parenting newsletters, workshops and online counselling. Dr Sabina Langer, another director of the programme, said, “The monthly newsletter is designed to provide parents meaningful, stimulating and practical information which they can use for their children.”
Deep Shikha Sehgal, a teacher and parent counsellor, covered the topic of strengthening parent teacher association. She said, “A teacher influences his or her students by both content and contact and can leave a long-lasting impression.”

kudos for Synapse Parenting for the great work they are doing in building a great society.
a child his first lesson from the kiss of the mother and cares of the father. then he starts his further molestones.
so a conscious and educated parents recognise the unability of the child.
then come the place of teachers.there r definitely such kind of problems , remaining unnoticed. this is due to lack of our infrastructure.
Synapse Parenting Program has made an unique effort of reaching Parents, Teachers and Children simultaneously. I would favourably recommend it to all the readers and schools should also encourage its circulation to improve its viewership
Synapse Parenting Program should be added in the school curriculum. It should be made compulsary to all the parents of the school children. The program is working for me. I would recommend all the parents to subscribe the Synapse Parenting Program.
Synapse Parenting Program is helping many parents. It is one of a kind, comprehensive and a pioneering project in India run by renowned parenting educators.
