Five-Day ECCE Training Workshop Underway in Shimla to Strengthen Pre-Primary Education
Shimla, Nov 04: Samagra Shiksha is organising a five-day state-level capacity-building workshop for Key Resource Persons (KRPs) under the Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) programme at ACSTI, Sangti, Summerhill, Shimla.
The first phase involves resource persons and district coordinators from Shimla, Sirmaur, Solan, Kinnaur, Mandi and Lahaul-Spiti.
The workshop focuses on play-based and activity-based learning, brain development and the overall development of children aged 3–6 years. Participants are also receiving training on storytelling, creative activities, the Himvatika Planner and Kit, inclusive education and identifying children with special needs.
Special sessions will also cover the state’s ‘Pehli Shikshak-Maa’ initiative, highlighting the role of mothers in early childhood education and strengthening coordination between teachers and classroom helpers.
On the concluding day, KRPs will prepare district-level training plans and subsequently train helpers and mothers at the block level across their respective districts.
