A new education initiative titled ‘Mission Vidyashakti' will soon be launched in district to enhance academic outcomes for students in classes 6 to 8. Following the success of ‘Mission Vidyakashi' for SSLC students, this scheme aims to improve learning quality and push the district into the top 10 in statewide rankings over the next two to three years. The district administration launched the ‘Mission Vidyakashi' programme last year.  

SM Hudedamani, deputy project coordinator Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan at the DDPI office, said that under this scheme, subjects like Mathematics, Science, and English, which are difficult for students and which most students fail in the exams, will be taught. The difficult points will be taught in an easy, simple, and varied manner so that the students can understand them.  

DDPI Shankmukhaswamy Keladimath said that the first phase of the meeting was held under the chairmanship of the Deputy Commissioner Divya Prabhu regarding the launch of the ‘Mission Vidyashakti'. Another meeting will be held soon to discuss the implementation of the scheme. The scheme was formulated with a view to cover the next two to three years to ensure that students achieve good results in examinations.

Divya Prabhu, Deputy Commissioner, told that a meeting was already held with officials of school education department to formulate the scheme. The difficult points for students in Mathematics, Science, and English were already identified, and the syllabus was prepared by subject experts, she said.

 Students will be taught online in smart classes by skilled education experts from IITs and IIITs. One teacher with computer experience in each school will be given the responsibility of managing it. They will be trained by June 15. The plan is to start the scheme in the last week of June, DC Divya Prabhu informed.
