The Vice Principal, Ms. Sudha Vershwal, of the School took it as a prime responsibility to organize it for school faculty as she was inspired by this sensitive issue which earlier held in the form of workshop at Kaushalya World School, organized by CBSE.

This young generation of the society generally becomes the victim of undesirable problems which may sometime leads them in isolation. The negligence and indifferent attitude  of the society adds oil to the fire.  To take the issue sensitively  and to understand the responsibility of good citizens, the workshop on the same theme conducted in the school so that many more can be educated  about this issue   because this is one of the sensitive issue of the society and it must be handled very minutely and carefully. 

In was an interactive workshop,  including many of the activities and videos.   All the teachers  were influenced and excited to be part of this reciprocal action which widened the scope of enrichment and succeeded in unleashing the scenario of asperity and contrast.     

  

The workshop was headed by a team of teachers under the guidance of the V. Principal  with different sorts of activities and  discussion. It was really good to see that a healthy discussion was started  on the importance of gender sensitization. As School is an integral part of a child’s life where one’s mindsets and attitudes are leant and shaped, viewing this, the discussion laid stress that children should be free to choose what they want to become rather than their biological make-up. It was focused that gender roles are interchangeable so equal opportunity should be given to individual on equal footing irrespective of his/her gender. As the need of the hour is that we draw the attention to the centrality of  female children in the Indian society, their  role cannot be avoided and restricted. Many videos, related to the topic worldwide, were laid out and discussed among teachers. The event gained its height when the Principal, Mr Birendra Bansal, of the school shared his views and appreciated the initiatives  and efforts of the participants.  Overall the workshop was a successful and enriching experience for all.
