Here's a summary of the actions she took and the results achieved: Learning from LEAD Program: Ruhi attended regular ICDI sessions and workshops organized by LEAD.

Shifting to a modern approach: Ruhi realized the importance of moving from traditional methods to a more modern approach. She understood the significance of listening to every voice, acknowledging and appreciating people. She also understood the importance of having a personal vision as well as a school vision aligned with the School Development Plan.
These initiatives have helped in creating a more inclusive and progressive environment in the school. Teachers have gained knowledge and improved their teaching practices. The school now has a clear vision, mission, and SDP. Parents are actively involved, and meetings are more engaging and interactive. The focus on basic literacy and numeracy skills, as well as integrating E-learning, shows a commitment to providing quality education. Overall, Ruhi's efforts and the implementation of these initiatives have brought about positive changes in the school, benefiting both students and teachers. | |
