Dear readers,
On behalf of the entire School Serv family, I wish you a very happy new year.
For us, the year bygone was the year of path-breaking developments in areas of school set up, improvement and K-12 education technology. In 2019, School Serv celebrated a decade of its founding, new school projects were planned, new products were launched and groundwork for many remarkable school projects was laid. The year 2020 will see the launch of 4 new international school projects, recruitment for the institutions is afoot and admissions has already begun. The notifications can be referred to in this edition of the newsletter.
I am happy to present before you the monthly newsletter for the month of January 2020. This month we have included a couple of reviews relating to the progresses made in the field of education and teacher-training and development in the passing decade, and the most promising trends in education for the coming decade. Other stories include the anger-free zones initiative by the CBSE, the school education quality index of NITI Aayog and the Punjab Child Rights Commission’s contention with the government’s move to introduce English medium in smart schools of the state.
With a fervent hope that this edition will give you insights into the workings of School Serv and will help you in keeping abreast with the important news from school education sector, I present to you the first newsletter of the year 2020.
Happy Schooling !
Vinod Kakumanu
