Questions :
A teacher notices that one of the students has been absent frequently for the past month without informing the school. What should the teacher do first ?
Options :
- Ignore the matter as attendance is the student’s responsibility.
- Contact the student’s parents or guardians to understand the reason.
- Immediately remove the student’s name from the attendance register.
- Punish the student publicly on the next day of attendance.
correct answer : b)
Explanation :
A responsible teacher should first try to understand the reason behind the student’s frequent absence by contacting the parents or guardians. This helps identify any personal, health, or family issues before taking further action. Ignoring the issue, removing the student’s name, or publicly punishing the student is neither appropriate nor supportive.
Hence, the correct answer is option (b) Contact the student’s parents or guardians to understand the reason.
