The post-lunch session emphasised on the importance of identifying key areas such as data governance and classroom diversity, necessary for academic success of the students.
Elaborating on the challenges and strategies in contemporary education, Francis Joseph said, “It is essential for principals to have a visionary outlook for the holistic development of the school and get acquainted with practices adopted in the modern-day education system. The principals should adapt to new techniques to encourage learning and undertake research to understand the ever-changing context of school leadership as it will help them engage the students better.”

Such workshops enable principals to understand the need for incorporating contemporary methods to teach students using advanced technologies and help them master lessons in a better way. With these newer methods, students also get a chance to choose a few topics and interact with the educator, which leads to a two-way learning.”
