CHANDIGARH, Feb 17: In a significant move to revolutionise the educational landscape of the state, Punjab School Education department conducted a two-day "Teacher Fest 2025-26" at Baba Banda Singh Bahadur Engineering College, Fatehgarh Sahib. The mega event witnessed an overwhelming participation of over 8,000 educators to transform the government schools into a vibrant hub of creativity, technology and pedagogical excellence.
Hailing the event as a testament to the innovative spirit of the state's teaching community, Punjab Education Minister S.

By encouraging our teachers to blend traditional methods with modern technology, we are directly investing in the future of every child of Punjab. The energy and creativity displayed during the event, are proof that Punjab's education system is ready to leap into a new era of excellence."
"Teachers are the architects of the nation's future," S.

Other categories included recreational activities like puzzles and quizzes, specialised teaching kits, handwriting & calligraphy, handmade models and flashcards and even manual and video games designed for learning, alongside real-life applications of subject knowledge.
