Over the years, many eminent teachers and educationists have contributed to high reputation the Jammu Sanskriti School enjoys today. It is an occasion to remember all of them with gratitude, he said.
The Lieutenant Governor highlighted that the prime objective of school education is to ignite the intellectual capacity of children.

He observed that the primary and secondary education is an interesting phase of positive change in a student’s life. He said, this is the time when knowledge and influence around affects his mind and body.
Whatever a child learns in this impressionable age stays for long years. It is during this period when a child develops instincts to make decisions and the sense of understanding between good and bad, right and wrong.

“The first resolution is to make the digital learning system interactive and encourage children to actively participate in the learning process. We must focus on one-to-one mentoring instead of information delivery, and offer field experience to students outside the classroom.
Teachers must share their life experiences with the students, encourage them for data interpretation and problem solving, and provide them with the freedom to explore new ideas. Our focus should also be on project-based learning so that children develop the ability to use their skills in different situations.
The seventh resolution is to ensure regular training and capacity building of teachers and provide them the opportunity to learn new things continuously,” the Lieutenant Governor said.
