Subject: Concern over Persistent Teacher Absenteeism in Government School, Blossom Valley, Indore

Dear Sir/Madam,
I hope this letter finds you in good spirits and health. I am writing to you as a concerned parent of a student studying at the Government School located in Blossom Valley, Indore. It has come to my attention, as well as that of other parents, that there has been a consistent issue of teacher absenteeism that has severely affected the quality of education and learning environment for the students.
Over the past academic year, it has been observed that several teachers frequently miss classes without prior notice or adequate substitution, leading to significant gaps in the curriculum coverage and learning outcomes for students. This issue has been particularly prevalent in critical subjects such as Mathematics and Science, where continuous learning and teacher guidance are essential.
Despite raising this issue with the school administration, there has been no noticeable improvement or accountability measures implemented to address this absenteeism. The lack of teacher presence not only hampers student learning but also undermines the efforts and investments made by the government and the community in public education.
Given the gravity of the situation and its impact on students’ academic growth and future prospects, I kindly request the Madhya Pradesh Education Department to:
1. Conduct an immediate review and investigation into the teacher absenteeism issue at the Government School, Blossom Valley, Indore.
2. Implement strict attendance and accountability policies for teachers, ensuring that all classes are adequately staffed and conducted as scheduled.
3. Facilitate additional support or remedial classes for students to cover the curriculum gaps created due to teacher absenteeism.
4. Engage with parents and the local community in developing sustainable solutions to enhance teacher commitment and improve the educational environment.
Education is a fundamental right of every child, and the role of teachers is pivotal in fulfilling this right. It is imperative that we uphold the highest standards of dedication and professionalism in public schools to ensure that our children receive the quality education they deserve.
Thank you for your attention to this pressing matter. I am hopeful for your prompt response and action to address the concerns raised.
Sincerely,

Rakesh Sharma
