Major Transformation in Sikkim’s PM SHRI Schools: Strengthening Education under NEP 2020
In Sikkim, significant positive changes are being observed in 47 schools selected under the PM SHRI Schools initiative.


These changes are being implemented in line with the guidelines of the National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020) with the primary objective of making schools modern, inclusive and student-centric.

Improved Infrastructure and Smart Classrooms

The infrastructure in these schools is being upgraded to provide students with a safe, engaging and comfortable environment. Classrooms are being transformed into smart classrooms, where digital technology is used to make learning more interactive and effective.

Additionally, Atal Tinkering Labs and ICT facilities have been established to promote innovation, scientific thinking and creativity among students.

Focus on Holistic Development

These schools are not only focusing on academics but also on the overall development of students. Skill education, sports, yoga, and co-curricular activities are being actively promoted to ensure balanced mental, physical and social development of children.

Environmental Awareness and Green Initiatives

Environmental conservation is also being given priority. Under Mission LiFE, eco-clubs have been formed to raise awareness among students about nature and encourage them to adopt an environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Along with this, initiatives like Building as Learning Aid (BaLA) are being implemented to turn the school environment itself into a learning resource.

Career Guidance and Better Results

Keeping students’ future in mind, career guidance and learning enhancement programs have also been introduced. These initiatives help students make informed decisions about their higher education and career paths.

The positive impact of these efforts is now visible in academic results as well. Improvements in Class 10 and Class 12 results indicate that these comprehensive reforms are proving successful.

Sikkim Emerging as a Model in Education

Overall, PM SHRI Schools in Sikkim are emerging as a model in the field of education, where modern technology, inclusive thinking and holistic development are being promoted together.
