A cohort of 30 principals from Delhi government schools and education department officials will head to the University of Cambridge, UK, for a leadership training program scheduled next week, government officials said on Monday. The visit is taking place as part of the Delhi government’s training and leadership initiative that seeks to provide global exposure to principals.
Deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia who met the principals going for the training on Monday, said that the government wanted to provide advanced professional training and international-level exposure to principals so that they could learn from the best education systems in the world. “The University of Cambridge is known for developing the most unique assessment practices and during this visit to Cambridge, our school principals will get an exposure to this and learn from it so that those assessment best practices can be adopted in Delhi too. This will help us develop student-centric assessment practices that will focus on reducing stress in students’ lives,” said Sisodia.
