Thursday, 17 April 2008, 10:10 a.m.
Dharamshala: The Department of Education (DOE) has concluded the first phase of an exchange programme for 26 school principals from different Tibetan schools. The program focussed on exchanging experiences among different school organisations in teaching and learning processes. It also aims to share experiences in institutional management and development.
The second phase will be held from 22-25 April.
Out of twenty-six principals, 14 principals are from Tibetan schools of Central Tibetan Schools Administration (CTSA), 7 from Tibetan Children's Village (TCV), 3 from Sambhota Tibetan Schools Society (STSS) and 2 from Tibetan Homes Foundation (THF) are participating in the exchange programme.
During the programme, the participants visited schools to observe teaching methodology and offered suggestions on further improvement. They held formal gatherings with students and teachers separately sharing information on the activities of the visiting Principal's school.
In 2006, DOE organised one-week teacher exchange programme for Tibetan schools located in northern India. It was widely appreciated and provided a memorable experience to all the participating teachers, students and schools. The next exchange programme will focus on teachers of schools in the South India.
