‘Learning never stops’ - this has been the watermark for all staff at Vasant Valley School. The Teacher Enrichment Programme helps the teachers access a vast storehouse of skills and knowledge, to enhance both their professional and personal growth. Teachers have been encouraged to attend courses or workshops across the world to understand best practices globally.
Opportunity for growth also helps our staff assume leadership roles, and share their learning with their colleagues and students. The diverse training modules range from sessions on classroom practices, learning styles, pedagogy, counselling, domain specific learning, to Art and Literature, Yoga and Mindfulness. The uniqueness of this programme lies in its all encompassing nature, and round the year schedule. This ever-evolving state of mind has helped our staff ride the wave, and embrace any paradigm shift smoothly.
