The school follows the CBSE National Curriculum in India and currently has classes running from Grade 1 to Grade 9. The school is growing organically andwill eventually have classes up to Grade 12.  \nWhere did your school’s journey with Preparing  \nto Teach begin?  \nOur Preparing to Teach journey began in August  \n2020 with an invite from Cambridge University  \nPress to attend a masterclass session. We were  \nthrilled to collaborate once again with the  \nCambridge team.  \n2  \nPICT Model School Pune, India  \nPreparing to Teach Cambridge Primary Science  \nDr Pampa Chaudhuri  \nDirector Principal  \nThe key takeaways were the active learning strategies that can be implemented at every stage of the class. Right from the class opening to the reflection and plenary session.  \nMs Joyee Sur  \nPrimary Science Educator  \nYour experience with Preparing to Teach  \nWhat were the key challenges you wanted to address with Preparing to Teach?  \nAlthough the CBSE (National Curriculum in India) is our core curriculum, we use Cambridge resources for English, mathematics and science. Aligning the resources to the CBSE curriculum remains our key challenge, which we wanted to address by collaborating with the Cambridge team.  \nThe focus on being multilingual, especially in our inclusive classrooms, is very helpful. This will ensure that no learner is left behindsomething that we strongly work towards at PICT.  \nMsAmruta Kulkarni  \nPrimary Science Educator  \nWhat are your school’s professional development goals?  \nWe recognise that professional, qualified and experienced staff are an asset and we strive to provide continuous professional development to achieve our vision and mission. The campus resonates with the desire to learn and our professional development endeavours are testimony to this. Educators attend courses on active learning, inclusive education, classroom organisation, making learning visual, blended learning, and communication protocol, to mention a few.  \nWhich aspects of Preparing to Teach did you find most helpful?  \nThe training materials were extremely helpful, with the detailed flow of the course structure. The initial masterclass set the tone for our follow up inschool workshop and gave a good insight into the expected outcomes ofthe Preparing to Teach course. The design of the cascade workshop expertly caters to all stakeholders, including educators, learners and parents.  \nDo you think that collaborating with Cambridge has helped you to overcome challenges?  \nWe believe that we need to collaborate further with the Cambridge team to bridge the gap between the learning expectations of the National Curriculum and the Cambridge resources. This will enable us to provide our learners with the best of both worlds, making learning truly contemporary with a global outlook.  \nMoving forwards  \nHow are you measuring the impact of the Preparing to Teach course?  \nThe first evidence of a change in mind-set was visible in the lesson plans made by the science educators, which reflected the use of active learning strategies. For learners, we have designed a checklist to record changes in  \nattitude and aptitude during lessons taught using Cambridge resources, following our in-school workshop. We will compare these observations with the ones that we recorded prior to the workshop in order to understand the impact.  \nDid you feel confident delivering your own in-school workshop?  \nAfter attending the masterclass and having the training materials ready, we were confident to conduct our own in-school workshop. We conducted the Preparing to Teach workshop in September, with a follow-up workshop in January 2021, closer to the beginning of the next academic year.  \nT","cbCaibLsBNDCxlzI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibLsBNDCxlzI","pdf",1543504,"English","# About your school\n## Preparing to Teach journey began\n# Your experience with Preparing to Teach\n## Key challenges and goals\n## Most helpful aspects\n## Collaborating with Cambridge\n# Moving forwards\n## Measuring impact\n## Confidence delivering workshops","[{\"question\":\"What mission and curriculum approach does PICT Model School follow?\",\"answer\":\"PICT Model School focuses on innovative tools and techniques to stimulate individual learning.
