Global Wisdom International School, Dera Bassi, hosts orientation session on NEP

The school hosted an enriching and thought-provoking orientation session on the National Education Policy (NEP), led by Prof Jayanti Dutta, Director, Human Resource Development Centre, Panjab University, Chandigarh. The session focused on the ‘India-centric’ approach of the NEP with an emphasis on the promotion of Indian languages, art, culture, and the philosophical roots that guide education in India. Prof Dutta eloquently highlighted the need to integrate the legacy of Indian heritage into modern education. She stressed that students must be nurtured to take pride in being Indian not just in thought, but in spirit, intellect, and deeds. The presentation inspired educators to become torchbearers of cultural revival and encouraged deeper research into Indian traditions. The event was graced by Dr Basundhara, Principal of the school, who extended heartfelt thanks to Prof Dutta for her insightful session. Dr Basundhara noted, “Sessions like these deepen our understanding of the NEP and help educators align classroom practices with national educational goals.” The school remains committed to holistic and culturally rooted education, and such initiatives reflect its ongoing dedication to academic excellence and national pride.
