Great teachers shape great minds, and CBSE’s bold new initiative is here to make every teacher feel confident, skilled, and empowered. This year, CBSE is launching its groundbreaking ‘Training Intervention Framework & Solutions’ (TIFS), a comprehensive initiative set to empower 15 lakh teachers from over 30,000 CBSE-affiliated schools across India.
In this newsletter, we dive into how CBSE’s TIFS framework is expected to redefine teacher development, and why every educator must know about it.
This large-scale program will provide teachers at every level, from primary to senior secondary, with a transformative 50-hour training aimed at enhancing teaching competencies and student engagement. TIFS aligns with India's ambition to achieve global educational excellence, ensuring our teachers are at the forefront of shaping a bright, well-rounded future for students across the nation.
Let us understand the scope of this initiative by exploring four key takeaways from CBSE’s TIFS framework that every teacher should know about:
