<div dir="ltr">Hi Guru, overall the letter is great ! Just a
couple of comments for you to consider (though not essential)
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- as with LPS students, a multi-year recovery plan should
be envisaged, and in the initial phase, the emphasis should be
on language, mathematics, socio-emotional development</div>
<div>- emphasize that young adolescents are
especailly vulnerable due to pressures for child labour, early
marriage etc, and this is why the focus should be on creating
a caring, inviting environment and developing core
competences, including confidence to learn</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I agree with doing away with exams, but if exams are going
to be conducted, they should be based on what children had the
opportunity to learn , not the theoretical syllabus. This is
what some countries are doing. We need not add this now, but
it can be raised int he discussion</div>

all,<br>
<br>
While Karnataka LPS teachers have been asked to focus on
foundational<br>
language and maths teaching using a socio-emotional
development approach<br>
(and avoid textbook teaching for the present), High School
teachers are<br>
receiving monthly syllabus prescriptions. Though High School
teachers<br>
also admit that their students are not ready for grade level
textbooks.<br>
<br>
We are planning to meet the Commissioner to discuss this
matter tomorrow<br>
afternoon. Pl share your comments on the draft letter attached
at your<br>
earliest.<br>
<br>
regards,<br>
Guru<br>
