About Mother Teresa Teacher Training College
Schools across the rural belt of Murshidabad frequently face a shortage of educators who understand the region's specific linguistic and social context. Mother Teresa Teacher Training College addresses this gap by training educators in close connection with local primary schools near the Bhagirathi river basin. Students here spend their semesters translating pedagogy theories into actual lessons for children in neighboring farming blocks.
