Teacher Education Program
Teachers are the cornerstone of quality education. Sterlite EdIndia Foundation’s Teacher Education Program (TEP) strengthens India’s teacher preparation system by building the capacity of both pre-service and in-service educators. The program works closely with SCERTs, DIETs, B.Ed. colleges, and education departments to ensure that every teacher entering the classroom is confident, reflective, and future-ready.
Our goal is simple yet profound, to ensure that every child in India learns from a well-prepared, compassionate, and competent teacher.
Data Analytics Support
Program
The Indian education system is one of the largest recipients of data inputs related to various academic and administrative aspects of education. With the advent of digitization, Department of Education has initiated efforts to collect data and record the same.
However, efforts to initiate data analysis have remained nascent. With the advancement in data analytics and technology, administrators can make well-informed academic and administrative decisions.
Given the wealth of data and its potential use, Sterlite EdIndia Foundation has been working with state governments to support them in making informed decisions.
Why Teacher Education Matters
India’s education system faces a crucial challenge: while millions of teaching posts remain vacant, only 13.7% of aspirants clear the CTET. The real solution lies in strengthening teacher education institutions (TEIs), nurturing the next generation of educators with strong pedagogical understanding, digital fluency, and leadership skills.
Sterlite EdIndia Foundation bridges this gap through a comprehensive program that combines digital learning, practical exposure, and reflective practice, ensuring that teaching becomes an aspirational profession once again.
