Pace Setting Activities

PACE SETTING ACTIVITIES:2019-20

One of the basic objectives of the Navodaya Vidyalaya scheme has been to enable the JNVs to play the role of a pace setting institution in the field of school education in the respective districts. The aim of the pace setting activities is to “galvanize academic, social, cultural and community oriented environment of schools” in the vicinity. By virtue of having a highly qualified and competent team of teachers, state of the art laboratories and IT infrastructure, teaching aids and sports equipment and rich libraries the JNVs are in a position to function as a “ focal point for improvement in the quality of school education in general, through sharing of experience and facilities.” Though the ambit of pace setting activities is pretty vast and much of the activities will depend on the ingenuity of the Principals and their team, some activities in the major areas are suggested below:-
