Eight years after the launch of Pragna, an “activity-based learning”, in the government primary schools of Gujarat, the project has been considerably scaled down. After spending Rs 150 crore and conducting a series of training sessions for over 80,000 teachers till 2017, the project will be limited to only Class I and II from this year, instead of Class I to V as it was being executed till now.

The Gujarat Council of Educational Research and Training (GCERT) has termed the decision to scale down the project with an aim to universalize it.

“The move to remove Pragna from Class III to V, and scale it down to all Class I and II, is aimed at universalizing it. This was necessary for its better implementation,” GCERT Director T S Joshi told to pointing to the project now being introduced in across 33,000-odd government primary schools. Till date, Pragna covered nearly 23,000 government primary schools.

However, primary teachers’ resentment against the “complicated teaching methodology” under Pragna cannot be ruled out for the decision to scale it down.

Teachers have resisted the project on several grounds, ranging from difficulty in “maintaining order” in classrooms, grouping of different classes in one room causing attention deficit, to “additional workload” on them.

This is clearly stated in the survey report prepared and submitted by the Gujarat Evaluation Department under General Administrative Department (GAD) in 2017. The teachers had said in their response, “It becomes difficult to assign different activities to children within the same group as students are at different milestones”.
