Principal's Desk

Dear Student and Teachers,

You have embarked upon the noble profession of teaching at a time when the world is going through rapid and profound economic, social, and political transformations based on the emerging 'Knowledge Economy,' -a system of creating wealth that depends upon the creation and application of new knowledge. Such new knowledge in the age of Knowledge explosion can only be created by educated people with innovative ideas and skills. Producing such manpower with advanced and innovative knowledge and efficient skills depends upon our education system. This necessitates appropriate changes in all the aspects of education, i.e. aims/goals of education, structures and types of academic institutions, curricula and so on. The responsibility of steering our education system and thereby our nation in this direction rests upon your shoulders.

We at Government Training College Hooghly aim at equipping the prospective teachers with knowledge that results in academic expertise, skills that lead to a techno friendly teaching  performances, attitudes that gear you towards lifelong learning and pursuit of excellence and last but not the least professional values that will constantly remind you of your commitment and accountability towards the global society.

Taking into consideration the demands of the society from the teaching profession , the vision of Government Training College Hooghly is to prepare globally competent teachers with a humane, collaborative and multicultural outlook, I encourage you to create and engage in a collaborative learning environment wherein we all collectively develop as professionals and human beings through formal learning and training as well as through increased interactions.

It's a challenge for us to see them grow and stand out as achievers and makers of tomorrow's India, apart from academics; we have multiple extra-curricular activities and clubs as we believe in the holistic development of our students.

I wish each one, a glorious future and success.
