“We have initiated the appointment of Mentor Officers across the district to guide schools, motivate both students and teachers, and ensure quality enhancement,” DC Damo said.
He called for a collaborative revolution in education, urging all stakeholders—educators, students, parents, and the wider community—to actively participate in building a culture of excellence.
On the role of media, the DC noted that it is a “double-edged sword”, capable of both shaping and distorting narratives. He urged for constructive media engagement, especially in sharing educational success stories, to encourage replication and innovation across the district.
