Comparing a student’s performance with that of another amounts to no less than humiliation. Instead, each child can be encouraged to compete withhimself/herself.

If we judge the ability of a student by the marks scored in examinations,we would not make a bigger mistake. It is plain common sense that a gold medalist in a university examination doesn’t necessarily succeed in a competitive exam like banking recruitment or the civil service.

Children must be allowed to grow to be self-reliant and autonomous int hought.Most of us,in our anxiety to help the children,keep them dependent forever .We’d better trust their capacity to take care of themselves and give them the freedom of choice while we conﬁne ourselves to the duty of watching them and protecting them when it becomes necessary.

‘roots’ encourages and practices open and regular communication between school and home.

‘roots’ aims at creating such work culture in which students study just for the pleasure of learning and learning alone in a stress-free environment where ‘roots of education are not bitter’.
