Teachers training and quality education.
Boarding schools play very vital role for grooming the personality
of child. But this grooming needs directional approach by teachers,
housemasters and parents.
In boarding schools hyperactive children are much more as compared
to day schools. The boarding schools of India has very good track record for
bringing up many great personalities. Today boarding schools are facing the
problems of lack of trained teachers/human resource. In India B.Ed colleges are
not giving any precise training to pupil teachers about the working culture of
boarding schools. It seems that education department and HRD ministry ignore
the role of boarding schools in spreading the education.
Management of day school vs. boarding school, teaching skills,
decentralization of powers, role of student council and school captains,
emphasis on co-curricular activities in both type of schools are totally
different.
We have colleges to train teachers but School principals and headmasters are the actual leaders who create future leaders.In India we don't have any competent authority for the training of these education leaders.Recently CBSE has tried to introduce PET (Principal eligibility test ) but later on they have dropped this idea.School is the reflection of Principal and his educational philosophy.He /She is responsible for moulding the future of teachers and kids.We must ensure the availability of such competent leaders through well organised training and courses in order to have a better output.

Teacher has to play dual role
in boarding schools i.e. teacher as well as guardian. In India the quality of
teachers are very poor because of low salary package as compared to other
professions. Teaching is last option in front of youth of this country. Without
proper training of teachers and not giving adequate salary the standard of education
cannot be improved.Govt. along with private sector should come forward to
improve the overall standard of education in India and to make India as
developed nation in 21th century.
