As classroom teachers, we have a direct influence on the pupils in our class. In our daily interactions with our pupils, we will have many teachable moments that are rich materials for us to impart the correct values. We are role models and can influence their behaviours and thinking.

Pupils are deeply affected by social agents like family, school and peers that surround them. At Primary school level, children are eager to use the abilities that they have developed. This eagerness means that they will inevitably encounter failures and success. As teachers, we are able to channel the child’s energy in a positive direction.

The family and school are two powerful influences that shape a child’s development. Thus it is crucial that we work closely with the child’s family to ensure that we sing from the same songsheet.

Roles & Responsibility

• discipline with dignity

• be firm & consistent

In addition, effective discipline takes place when we discipline with dignity and the child perceive that rewards and punishments are fair and just. Children at this age group are learning the rules and regulations of the society. Teachers and family play important roles in this learning process.
