The response / feedback
of SSA Office – Government of Gujarat :-
• The
response & feedback was very good and encouraging. They were very happy to
learn that HFN Institute has started visiting schools and started conducting
Meditation Sessions.
• They were
so happy that they offered to cover all remaining 160 locations of KGBV having
only Hostel facility. However, after giving a good thought on our strength, we
decided to include 14 locations of KGBV where only Hostel facility is there. We
cannot roll out THW Curriculum at these locations but relaxation for students
and meditation for Teachers can be offered.
•
Further, two "only Hostel" type
schools are converted into "With Hostel" type from this year.
Hence there will be now total 67 KGBV Schools with Hostel Facility.
•
Therefore,
total 81 locations have been assigned to us by GoG. 67 Schools with Hostel and 14 Only Hostels.
The Road Map Ahead :-
- All books for STD 6,7
& 8 in Gujarati Language have been dispatched to KGBV School. As soon
as they reach the schools, THW Curriculum will be started in all 67
locations across Gujarat State.
- Curriculum Support to
KGBV School :-
• For
immediate Help to Teachers :- WhatsApp Group has been created by GoG with
all Teachers who are responsible for implementation of THW Curriculum.
• Refresher
Course on Quarterly Basis :- It has been
decided to conduct refresher course through BISAG Communication Link.
