International school education has come a long way over the last 30-50 years. While India has been quick to adapt to changes in most fields like medicine, infrastructure, architecture, engineering, etc. it hasn’t taken similar steps in the field of education. India ranked a lowly 72
nd in the only PISA test it participated in, and while some schools are revolutionizing the way education is imparted in India, we have a long way to go. In order to enable students to compete with the international community and to get India on the world map of education, it is important that we empower our teachers with the latest methods and learning strategies in the field of education. The carefully researched and developed programmes by ODSS are a step in this direction.
