PUNE: Plans are afoot to involve the selected teachers and schools in shaping the state's educational strategies and training programmes.

A government resolution (GR) in this regard was issued on Monday, outlining the framework and goals of the scheme. The idea is to encourage quality education and ensure that the experience of outstanding teachers and schools benefits students and parents statewide. Through this initiative, the government hopes to showcase exemplary practices, allowing others in the education sector to learn and implement similar strategies.
