KULGAM: As part of the ‘Classes of Joy’ initiative, a session for Heads of Institutions (HOIs) and zonal-level committees was held on Friday in Kulgam, during which they were sensitized and urged to take proactive steps in overseeing and supporting the effective rollout of the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach in their respective schools and zones.
Deputy Commissioner Kulgam, Athar Aamir Khan, Friday presided over the session of HoIs and zonal committees to ensure robust on-ground implementation. He appreciated the enthusiastic participation of teachers and stakeholders, and emphasized the collective responsibility in addressing learning gaps to ensure that every child benefits from this mission.
“This is more than just a training programme; it is a mission to transform classrooms into joyful, engaging spaces focused on real learning. HOIs and zonal teams, teachers must take ownership to ensure this vision reaches every child,” DC remarked. He further stressed that classrooms must become the most joyful places for children and acknowledged the pivotal role teachers play in shaping young minds.
He added that through collective effort, placed with sincerity and dedication, the education system can be truly transformed. Over the course of the programme, more than 2,100 elementary teachers were trained in multiple batches, with approximately 300 participants attending each day. Teachers were also provided with comprehensive teaching-learning materials to support the implementation of the strategies covered during the training.
Participants shared encouraging feedback, describing the training as practical, relevant, and well-aligned with everyday classroom challenges. They particularly appreciated the activity-based learning model and expressed a strong desire for more such capacity-building initiatives in the future. The session was attended by Additional Deputy Commissioner Kulgam, Viqar Giri; along with officers from the Education department and other key stakeholders.
