Mr. S. Asthana is of the opinion that, “It is practically an uphill task for teachers to stay updated with the latest developments at individual levels empathetically considering their tight daily school schedule: The world is changing fast, and children need new-age skills, such as collaboration and ability to learn new things quickly to keep pace. In order to develop these skills, we, the facilitators, need to keep pace with the latest developments in the field of education. With the current pressures on teachers, though it is difficult to expect them to incorporate cutting-edge innovations into their work, yet this is our endeavour at The Heritage School, Jammu.
