  Provincial program manager

  Well educated teachers in Balochistan are teaching without latest and emerging trends of teaching methodologies which makes teaching not only stressful but also hard. Although teachers are trained regularly through sporadic sources but without surveys like Teacher Need Assessment competency baseline surveys and assessments its not easy to reflect trainees’ knowledge in class rooms of Balochistan. Also the Capacity Gap Assessment for the continuous professional development of teachers identified that due to lack of formal in-service teacher training the teachers are inclined to the same teaching methods on which they were taught, limiting their capacity for innovative and to think outside the box. After conducting TNA, revising existing modules and trainer manual, amalgam of 67 Master Trainers (PITE, BOC, BAEC, Elementary colleges & Schools) went through 15 days rigorous Training of Trainers. Through cascade model these 67 Master Trainers have started training 3100 government teachers from 11 UNICEF focussed districts (Jafferabad, Naseerabad, Kachi, Lasbella, Quetta, Zhob, Sherani, Gawadar, Pishin, Killabdullah & Killasaifullah). Keeping the dynamics and culture of Balochistan we look forward to see a class of international standards in government schools of Balochistan through improvising and utilizing present resources. We not only believe in physical environment but also psychosocial and temporal environments should be taken care of where kids are prepared for competing in global village and enhancing their vision through proper implementation of lesson plans, pedagogies, constructivism, multiple inteligences, 21stcentury skills, micro teaching, growth and development.
