Govt against teachers' training in distant mode



The government is considering to discourage offering pre-service training in distant mode for students looking forward to taking up teaching jobs.

HRD Minister Kapil Sibal held a roundtable on teachers' education here on Monday where majority of the participants said teachers' education should be given on face-to-face mode in view of the importance of such education.

The government will convene a meeting of the vice chancellors soon to discuss the issue.

The members, which includes principals of many city schools, however, said the in-service teachers could be allowed to pursue teachers' training in distant mode.

The round table also discussed about the differential pattern of school education in states. While in some states, the primary schooling is up to class IV, a few other states have primary schools offering education up to class three.

The differential pattern also creates problem in planning teachers' training in the country.
