The Power of Partnership: Over 1,300 Families Attend NGIS Parent-Teacher Conference
PHNOM PENH, February 14, 2026 — While many were celebrating Valentine’s Day, the families of New Gateway International School (NGIS) were showing a different kind of love—a commitment to their children’s educational journey. The campus was a hive of activity as the school hosted its mid-year Parent-Teacher Conference (PTC), welcoming a staggering 1,300 families.
The event served as a critical touchpoint in the academic year, moving beyond report cards to foster deep, face-to-face dialogues about student growth and future aspirations.
Strengthening the Educational Triangle
At NGIS, the PTC is viewed as more than just a meeting; it is a strategic alignment. Educators and parents sat down to discuss:
- Academic Milestones: Reviewing progress in core subjects and identifying areas for further enrichment.
- Social-Emotional Development: Discussing how students are integrating into the school community and developing soft skills.
- Goal Setting: Creating a unified plan to ensure every child reaches their full potential for the remainder of the academic year.
A Community-Driven Success
The “cornerstone of student success” is parental involvement, and the 1,300 families in attendance demonstrated the high level of trust and engagement that defines the NGIS community. This active partnership ensures that the lessons learned at school are reinforced at home, creating a seamless environment for the next generation to thrive.
“The energy on campus was truly inspiring,” the school shared, thanking the families for their dedication. In the landscape of international schools in Cambodia, such high attendance rates at PTCs are a clear indicator of a school’s health and the vibrancy of its community spirit.
