Officers told to focus on bridge courses for students

Taking note of disturbed classes owing to the pandemic in the last two academic years, Commissioner for Industries and Commerce and Kalaburagi In-charge Secretary Gunjan Krishna has asked officers, especially those in the Education Department, to focus on conducting bridge courses.

Speaking at a review meeting at the District Administrative Complex here on Thursday, she stressed the need for bridge courses to help students to fill the gaps in their learning and asked the officers to effectively make use of teachers for the purpose.

“The pandemic has disturbed classes for the last two academic years. Children’s education has been hit hard. We need to help them fill the gaps. Make use of the available human resources and conduct the bridge courses,” she told officers, asking them to ensure that the district finds place in the top 10 in SSLC examination next year.
