Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann highlighted the positive impact of a collaboration with Finland's University of Turku on local classrooms during his visit to Finland. The initiative, part of Punjab's 'Sikhya Kranti' program, aims to shift teaching practices from rote learning to more interactive and participatory methods. By May 2026, nearly 300 teachers will be trained through a structured train-the-trainers model, enhancing foundational learning across the state. Mann emphasized the importance of adapting global pedagogical expertise to Punjab's socio-cultural context, ensuring that teaching methods are relevant and effective. The program includes training sessions in both Punjab and Finland, combining workshops and mentoring to expose teachers to innovative practices. Continuous support from Finnish experts will help integrate these best practices into local systems, making learning more joyful and engaging for students. The government plans to expand the program's reach through master trainers and digital platforms for ongoing professional development.
