The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is all set to shake up teacher training! With a colorful twist inspired by the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, it has launched 14 vibrant Capacity Building Programmes (CBPs) to power up teachers’ skills. These new programmes promise to boost continuous professional growth across all CBSE-affiliated schools. The grand reveal of the CBP Training Manuals happened at the National Teachers Conference 2025 in Patna, creating a buzz among the education community. The goal? To help teachers grasp concepts clearly and master fresh teaching tricks for classrooms. Fancy that! Here’s the masaledar menu of subjects covered: - Hindi (Class 10): Effective teaching strategies that make Hindi a breeze. - Sanskrit (Secondary Stage): Sharpen listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. - Painting (Secondary Stage): Explore creative art techniques like folk art, origami, printmaking, and calligraphy. - Economics (Class 12): Dive deep into national income and learn assessment methods with flair. - STEM Education (All Stages): Hands-on, interdisciplinary teaching tips for Science, Tech, Engineering, and Maths. - Value Education Through Sports (All Stages): Learn how sports teach teamwork, resilience, and inclusion. But wait, there’s more! The CBPs also include special modules on competency-based assessment for Social Science, Science, and Mathematics at middle and secondary levels. These modules guide teachers to create tests and projects that encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, and real-world learning. Starting from October 2025, CBSE will roll out these power-packed programmes through its Centre of Excellence as part of the exciting Prashikshan Triveni initiative. Schools have been asked to spread the word and motivate teachers to join this learning carnival. In short, it’s a thrilling new chapter for education, where teachers become superheroes armed with fresh skills to light up classrooms everywhere! Schools and teachers, get ready to dive into this amazing journey!
