According to an official statement, the chief minister said the teachers would attend a professional teacher training seminar in Singapore from February 6-10.

Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said on Thursday that teachers of 36 government schools in Punjab would leave for Singapore on February 4 to attend a training programme. He said AAP had given a “guarantee” to change the state’s education system ahead of the assembly elections last year.

Mann said that since teachers are nation builders who can raise the standard of education, it was guaranteed that their teaching skills would be upgraded by ensuring quality training.

Mann said that under this guarantee, 36 principals would travel for the training programme.

According to an official statement, the chief minister said he would attend a professional teacher training seminar in Singapore from February 6 to 10.

36 headmasters will return on February 11.

Mann said, thousands of students across the state will be benefited from this move as these principals will share their experiences with their colleagues and students, which will “help further enhance the expertise and professional competence of teachers to provide quality education to the students”. “.

Mann believes that this step will prove to be a milestone towards improving the education system of the state. The Chief Minister said that with these efforts, Punjab would soon become a leading state in the field of education.
