Training for first batch of 50 MCD school principals will start on June 29 at IIM, Ahmedabad
NEW DELHI: In a move paralleling the high-quality teacher training initiatives in Delhi government schools, the principals of MCD schools will now undergo school leadership and management training at esteemed institutions such as IIM Ahmedabad and other IIMs.
Delhi Education Minister Atishi announced that the training for the first batch of 50 MCD school principals would commence on June 29 at IIM Ahmedabad. Delhi Mayor Dr Shelly Oberoi hailed this as a revolutionary step towards establishing world-class MCD schools in Delhi.
Education Minister Atishi said, “Over the past 8 years, a revolution has transformed the education system of Delhi government schools. I firmly believe that once our teachers and principals from MCD schools receive high-quality training, a similar revolution will permeate through the MCD schools, unstoppable and transformative.”
“I am confident that within the next 3-4 years, world-class education will be accessible to every child from Nursery to Class 12 in government schools of Delhi through initiatives like these,” she said.

Atishi further emphasised that education has been the paramount focus of CM Arvind Kejriwal’s government for the past eight years. “Under CM Kejriwal’s leadership, the annual financial budget consistently allocates the highest share, 25 per cent, to education – a feat unmatched by any other state in the country. The next highest budget allocation is a mere 14 per cent,” she said.
The investments made in Delhi’s public education system, including school infrastructure, international teacher training, and curriculum development, have yielded remarkable results. The academic performance of students in Delhi government schools has improved, not only in board examinations but also in competitive exams such as IIT-JEE and NEET.

These students now possess innovative ideas and skills. However, a significant challenge faced by the government is the lack of foundational literacy and numeracy skills among students transitioning from MCD schools to Class 6 in Delhi government schools.
Atishi said, “Over the past 15 years, the education system in MCD schools has been neglected to such an extent that students completing 7 years of education (from nursery to 5th grade) often struggle with basic reading and writing skills.”
“Since the formation of the AAP (Aam Aadmi Party) government in MCD, education has also become a top priority there. To ensure that students receive the highest quality education, it is imperative to provide MCD school teachers with the finest professional development opportunities,” she added.
“In this regard, the premier management training institutes in the country, such as the IIMs, are deemed the best,” she added.
