REMEMBER the tale of 'Mittu poocha' and 'Thanku poocha' that went viral on social media during the pandemic? The video, which is one of the most viewed in the KITE VICTERS channel, gained widespread attention for the imaginative ways in which teachers took lessons for primary students, helping the education sector survive the Covid crisis. Years later, those classes have levelled themselves up, with its third edition 'First Bell 3.0' launched on Wednesday.

The sessions will no longer be alternatives for regular classes, but a support for students, KITE (Kerala Infrastructure and Technology for Education) officials said. The updated curriculum for Classes 1-10 will be used in these classes, while the videos for Classes 11 and 12 will remain unchanged.
