Research proves that Teacher Quality is the most important school related factor influencing student achievement. Teacher preparation process too requires a complete paradigm shift in their training mechanism and processes. The primary goal of overhauling the service environment and culture of schools will be to maximize the ability of teachers to do their jobs effectively, and to ensure that they are part of vibrant, caring, and inclusive communities of teachers, students, parents, principals, and other support staff, all of whom share a common goal: to ensure that our children learn.
ZIETs have an extremely important role to play in implementing the provisions of NEP 2020. It requires great deal of team work and motivation. Our mission is not only to impart knowledge but also to inspire a love for learning, foster critical thinking, and cultivate the skills necessary for success in the ever-evolving landscape of education.
I truly believe that with the kind of potential we have in ZIETs, we can develop life skills through real education. Collaboratively we can enhance our programs, explore innovative teaching methodologies, and create an environment that fosters Continuous Professional Development.
I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to each of you as the Director of ZIET Mysore. It is an honour and privilege to be a part of this esteemed institution dedicated to shaping the future of education through the preparation and development of educators.
