The City police have embarked on a unique programme with various agencies to reorient the attitude of school ‘backbenchers’.
The ‘Agniparavakal’ programme is being implemented in collaboration with Smart City Thiruvananthapuram Ltd (SCTL), Kerala Academy of Skill Excellence (KASE), and the General Education department.
While the Government Model Boys Higher Secondary School (HSS) in Thycaud has been chosen for the pilot project, the initiative derives inspiration from a similar programme that was successfully undertaken in Mattancherry Vocational Higher Secondary School in Kochi after being conceptualised by its Principal Fasil.
