Objective
We seek to develop leadership capacities among Nodal Head Masters and Head teachers of all the schools across the Union Territory of DNH & DD so that they can facilitate environments that foster learning with meaning in the schools of the UT.
The Intervention
The Leadership for Learning with Meaning program operates across the UT of DNH & DD in about 400 schools which reach more than one lakh children.
The Director and Assistant Director- Education, DIET officials, 40 Nodal Head Masters and about 340 head teachers participate in the program. At all levels the program seeks to develop a deeper understanding of how children learn meaningfully, and how adults can create an environment that fosters learning with meaning.
At all levels, the program also develops, among the participants, a deeper understanding of how to inspire and enable the people who report to them to create such a learning environment in their schools and classrooms.
The Story So Far...
FCL and the Department of Education DNH & DD agreed to work together towards building leadership capacities of Heads of Schools in the UT beginning June 2023.
The program began with a needs and context analysis and baseline assessment. This has been followed by a training of Nodal Headmasters who have been practising the new approach to learning in classroom in their respective schools.
OUR PARTNER
The Department of Education in DNH & DD is the critical element ensuring the effectiveness of this program.
The commitment of the senior leadership of the department creates a highly supportive environment for the headmasters to explore the new ways of helping children learn.
