CISCE successfully conducted a 3-Day Residential Training Programme on “Inclusive Pedagogy for Students with Special Education Needs” from 16–18 April 2026 at its Centre of Excellence, Hyderabad.
The programme brought together 30 dedicated educators in an immersive learning environment focused on strengthening inclusive classroom practices.
The training enabled participants to deepen their understanding of supporting Children with Special Needs (CwSN), with focused engagement on Intellectual Disability (ID), Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD), and Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC). Educators explored practical strategies to design inclusive learning environments using Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles.
The programme further strengthened capacities in developing Individualised Education Plans (IEPs), effectively utilising resource rooms, and fostering meaningful collaboration with parents and stakeholders.
This initiative reflects CISCE’s sustained commitment to empowering educators and building classrooms where every learner is valued, supported, and enabled to thrive.
Our CISCE Centre of Excellence in Hyderabad conducted a 5-day residential training programme titled “Joyful Mathematics and Unplugging the Computer”.
Designed to reimagine mathematics classrooms, the training equipped teachers with hands-on pedagogical tools, creative models and strategies to strengthen conceptual understanding and critical thinking.
Through immersive activities such as decoding ancient cryptography and constructing mathematical models, teachers explored innovative ways to make learning engaging, experiential and student-driven.
The programme concluded with a certification ceremony, reinforcing CISCE’s continued commitment to empowering educators through meaningful, practice-oriented training.
On Ambedkar Jayanti, CISCE pays tribute to Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar (1891–1956), a principal architect of India’s Constitution and one of the foremost thinkers on equality, justice and education.
Dr. Ambedkar viewed education not merely as access to knowledge, but as a means of enabling individuals to participate meaningfully in society. His emphasis on constitutional morality and social equity continues to resonate deeply within the educational landscape of India.
For institutions, his legacy is a reminder that education must go beyond instruction and foster critical thinking, dignity and equal opportunity for every learner.
