Oxford University Press India partners with CBSE to empower teachers for NCF-FS

The Oxford University Press India (OUP), in collaboration with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), has designed a research-based Capacity Building Programme (CBP) - Think–Share–Learn–Practice (TSLP), for teachers in order to facilitate the implementation of the National Curriculum Framework at the Foundational Stage (NCF-FS).

The MoU for this collaboration was signed in July, on the occasion of the 3rd anniversary of NEP, in the presence of Union Minister of Education, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Shri Dharmendra Pradhan. The pilot training of CBSE master trainers was conducted between September - October



2023 in Chennai, Guwahati, and Delhi.

This training programme is aimed at empowering the foundational teachers of 25,000 schools to build an activity-based learning environment and bridge the gap between the teaching-learning methods in the Bal Vatika 1, 2, 3, and grades one and two (for learners between 3-8 years).

The TSLP (Think–Share–Learn–Practice) programme will empower teachers to develop the understanding and core skills of curriculum design and teaching-learning practices to seamlessly enable the transition to a holistic, activity-based, and experiential learning environment, rooted in the Indian ethos.
