Dear Chairs,
The Helping Hand retention project will start next Saturday, 23rd November, 10.00-12.00 and 13.00-15.00.
Rangsit: Building A5 (Tourism Tower), 10th floor, Room 1003
City campus: K422
10.00-12.00 session, I will ask students to make appointments.
13.00-15.00 will be open for any students who want advice. Parents are also welcome.
It is not necessary for chairs to attend if you select the representative for your department. Their job is:
1. to give advice to students next week
2. to follow up on students who ask for help under this project and coordinate with the chair and other teachers when necessary
3. to report on the progress of the students at regular intervals
The focus is on students in the two GPA bands of 1.50-1.74 and 1.75-1.99 and I will give you the lists of students in these groups. Please pass them on to your department representative.
However, there may be students with a GPA of 2.00+ who have worries and would also like advice so I will invite all students who wish to discuss academic problems in the afternoon session.
We don't yet have a school policy on how to help students. But if students come to us for help we can first look at how best to help on a case by case basis.
If you give me the name of your representative, I will talk to them directly about next Saturday.
