During school hours, parents should directly contact:

(a) Teachers

(b) Head-teacher

(c) School day teacher

(d) Students

✅ Correct Option:

(b) Head-teacher

Explanation:

During school hours, parents should contact the head-teacher to maintain discipline, proper communication channels, and administrative order. Direct contact with teachers or students during class time may disrupt teaching and learning. The head-teacher acts as the official link between parents and the school. He or she can guide parents appropriately, call the concerned teacher if necessary, and ensure issues are handled professionally. This system preserves the hierarchical structure of school administration. PPSC emphasizes proper communication flow and school discipline policies, making this a recurring concept.
