Our Vision

We should envision a transformative and holistic approach to education, reflecting the rich cultural and linguistic diversity of the region. The vision should prioritize equipping educators with innovative teaching methodologies that cater to the unique needs of students in West Bengal, fostering a love for learning and critical thinking. The institute should strive to cultivate a cadre of teachers who are not only well-versed in the prescribed curriculum but also possess a deep understanding of local contexts, histories, and socio-economic dynamics. Emphasizing inclusivity, educators should be adept at creating inclusive and culturally responsive classrooms. Furthermore, the institute should aspire to be a hub for research and collaboration, encouraging continuous professional development and staying abreast of global educational trends to enhance the overall quality of education in West Bengal. Ultimately, the vision should align with the broader goal of nurturing competent, compassionate, and culturally aware educators who can contribute effectively to the growth and development of the region’s educational landscape.

Our Mission

Our mission should be to cultivate a cadre of highly skilled and compassionate educators who are dedicated to fostering a dynamic and inclusive learning environment. The institute must prioritize equipping aspiring teachers with the pedagogical knowledge, innovative instructional techniques, and a deep understanding of diverse learning styles. Emphasizing the development of effective communication, critical thinking, and interpersonal skills is crucial to enable teachers to engage and inspire their students effectively. Additionally, our mission should underscore the importance of embracing cultural diversity, as India is a melting pot of varied cultures and languages, fostering a sense of empathy, and instilling a commitment to lifelong learning. Ultimately, a teacher training institute’s mission should extend beyond the mere transmission of subject matter expertise, aiming to empower educators to create meaningful connections with students, nurture a passion for learning, and contribute positively to the broader educational landscape and development of the nation.

Principal's Message

1. MIRA LAMA, PRINCIPAL

Education should be our collective endeavour and responsibility as it is the only tool that will change the demography of our country to an educated, accountable, informed, empathetic and tolerant citizen of the world which is the need of every human civilisation. The first step begins with teacher education who will in turn mould children into morally good human beings who are not only educated and an asset to self and country but also bear testimony to the manifestation that education brings about.
