Workshops & Seminars

We firmly believe that in order to do complete justice to the teaching profession,

teachers need to keep themselves abreast of latest trends and modern systems in

education. For this purpose, APS Gopalpur ensures that its teachers attend wksps, and

the training and seminars organized by CBSE, AWES, Internal seminar and other

educational bodies from time to time. Wksps are also organized in the school during

Summer Vacation.The inservice training programme for teachers is organized from 1st

may to 15th may.

Finally, we at APS Gopalpur believe that the smooth functioning of a school is only

possible when there is a perfect coordination between the three vital wings of the

institution i.e., the students, the parents and the teachers.

The students are the very embodiment of all these values and knowledge imparted to

them by the school. The teacher, bring before a child the true lessons of life and equip

him or her with the power to compete with moral strength and emotional stability. The

parents are instrumental in bridging the gap between the teacher and the student. Their

role is most vital in ensuring that the child benefits the maximum from the time spent by

him or her in the school.

APS Gopalpur over the years has always had a supporting hand from the parents,

Chairman & other members of the Board of Management and the sincere involvement

of the teachers. The long run success stories and good results of our students bear

testimony to this. I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all.

Thank you all. Jai Hind!
