Hry to upskill teachers in English, Sanskrit

SCERT has begun by training master trainers. Master trainers underwent English language training at the SCERT centre in Gurugram from October 15 to 17, while the Sanskrit training session is scheduled from October 29 to 31.
Dr Suman Sharma, language incharge at SCERT, explained the structure: "Master trainers are trained at the SCERT office and, through DIET, will be sent to different districts and blocks across Haryana to train government school teachers. These special modules will guide teachers at both PGT and TGT levels on how to teach in English and Sanskrit while still preserving the importance of mother tongue."
According to Sona Yadav, Senior Incharge at DIET, teacher training will commence in November, after school exams. Dr. Sundar Rana, Sanskrit specialist at SCERT, stated each master trainer batch has three days of training, after which they will train teachers for five days.
