Taking a leap forward towards revamping the education sector, Punjab Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains on Sunday flagged off the second batch of the headmasters for expert training at the Indian Institute of Management (IIM), Ahmedabad.
Bains, speaking on the occasion after flagging off the batch of headmasters, said that this is the second batch is going to Ahmedabad for upscaling of their expertise. He said that the single motive is to ensure that students of the government schools in the State get quality education so that they can compete with their convent educated peers across the globe.
The Minister said that as good coaches produce excellent players, similarly, an updated teacher will help in grooming able students for the coming future. “There is no dearth of funds with the State Government for the education sector and every effort will be made to ensure that students get quality education,” he said.
Bains envisioned that due to the strenuous efforts of the state government, the day is not far away when Punjab will emerge as a hub of quality education across the country.
