Bridge classes at govt schools fail to address learning gapsÂ

Hyderabad: Teachers in government schools alleged that students of classes 1 to 5 are continuing with multi-grade learning, even after the completion of the first term exams, due to a lack of better plans to bridge learning gaps due to the Covid-19 outbreak-induced lockdowns and subsequent online classes. Another government teacher alleged that teachers were being pressurised as the school management would fire them if their names were revealed in news reports. A fourth government school teacher, who has worked for over 20 years, said that teachers are not upgrading their skills as there is no training or new learning resources provided by the government. There should be a separate consultant or a trainer, especially for government school teachers, who is an expert in the particular field,” the teacher said.
