How does the school help your students or community?
At VIT, we have implemented a unique Proctoring Scheme designed to provide personalized support and guidance to our
students. Each proctor is assigned up to 20 students and serves as a mentor and foster parent. They take on the moral
responsibility of ensuring the academic progress, emotional well-being, and overall welfare of their students.
Proctors act as a point of contact for any issues or concerns students may have, from academic challenges to personal or
psychological pressures. When students approach their proctor, the proctor assumes the role of a parent, counsellor,
facilitator, or friend, depending on the situation, offering the necessary support to ensure their comfort and success.
By adopting an empathetic, ego-free approach and showing genuine interest in the students’ futures, proctors go the
extra mile to nurture an environment of servant leadership. This supportive and proactive guidance helps students feel
valued, understood, and empowered to reach their full potential.
