School principals, teachers to exchange successful practices

In order to explore possibilities of replicating some of the best practices being implemented in some of the State-run schools, Delhi Government’s Directorate of Education will be holding an Open House wherein principals of these schools will share their experiences with other school heads.

“The Open House will be held at the Thyagraj Stadium later this month. The selected school principals will share their successful best practices with all the 1,007 heads of government schools in order to explore the possibilities of replicating them in other schools,” said Education Director Padmini Singla.

Ms. Singla added that she has initiated a direct communication with school principals and teachers to motivate them towards their job as they are often criticised for their lackadaisical approach.

In order to improve the success rates of the government-run schools, the authorities have also started remedial classes for Class IX students.
