Abstract
With Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA)
transitioning towards the Right To Education (RTE), teacher
education institutions and systems need to be fully geared
up to meet the demands of pre-service and in-service teacher
education and their ongoing professional development. Most
states do not have adequate systems to provide the necessary
cadres of trained elementary level school teachers. It is
thus important to enhance the roles and capacities of
teacher education institutions in India to support them to
become globally competitive, professionally managed, and
futuristically progressive to cater to the needs of huge
back logs of untrained teachers. This training is crucial to
ensure that children at the elementary levels get quality
education in accordance with the National Curriculum
Framework (NCF) 2005 and its basic tenets of child centered pedagogy.
