Strategic Family Grouping:
Staff and Students of MMEHS are members of one big family. The Strategic Family Grouping is unique to MMEHS in that it is an innovation in supportive communal living. All the staff members of MMEHS have social roles to play in ensuring that students have somebody they can turn to whenever they need attention. Teaching is just a tiny aspect of the functions of teachers in this family. Every student belongs to a family grouping and he is treated by other family members the way family members are expected to treat each other. Surrogate parents are introduced to the school family and a symbiotic synergy results. Through this system, good values are learned, academic performance enhanced, home and school families interact, and every member of the school community becomes a shareholder in a venture designed to bring the best out of MMEHS family members. Ours is one big, focussed and happy family.
