At RSJMS, we believe that empowered teachers inspire empowered learners. In today’s ever-evolving educational landscape, our educators are encouraged to pursue continuous learning, reflection, and professional growth.
To strengthen teaching practices and enhance classroom effectiveness, regular workshops and training sessions are conducted on diverse themes such as innovative pedagogies, classroom management, inclusive education, technology integration, mental well-being, and value-based education.
During the year, our teachers participate in a series of insightful workshops including Cyber Security, Social Emotional Ethical Learning (SEEL), Capacity Building for Mathematics Teachers, POSH Policy Awareness, and Decoding NCF–FS for Classroom Practices.
Each workshop is aimed to enhance personal and professional growth, promote safe and inclusive learning environments, and equip teachers with innovative strategies that translate into meaningful learning experiences for students.
In addition, our in-house faculty, in collaboration with the Modern Institute of Education, conducts capacity-building workshops on Play-Based Pedagogy, English Language, And Literacy for teachers from NDMC and DOE schools. The sessions, held at our school premises, witness enthusiastic participation from educators representing nearly 40 schools, fostering professional exchange and collective growth across institutions.
By investing in teacher empowerment, RSJMS continues to nurture a culture of excellence, collaboration, and innovation, creating a vibrant, forward-thinking educational community that inspires lifelong learning

4. Microsoft Elevate for Educators – AI EmpowerED: Hybrid Phase 2 Rollout
A group of teachers attended the launch event of "Microsoft Elevate for Educators – AI EmpowerED, Hybrid Phase 2 Rollout," jointly organised by Microsoft, UNESCO (South Asia Regional Office), KPMG and Tablet Academy, held on 10th July 2026 (3:00 pm – 5:00 pm) at UNESCO House, San Martin Marg, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi. The session marked the national launch of the programme being rolled out to educators across India, with implementation support from Robotex India, Juana, De Pedagogics and Piramal Foundation.
As per Microsoft's invitation, the programme aims to enhance digital teaching and learning practices, build future-ready classroom experiences, and help educators learn from Microsoft-supported professional development pathways. It also encourages educators to connect with a wider community of peers across India, explore AI-powered teaching tools and resources, and participate in a structured, three-month professional learning journey.
The speakers explained the Hybrid Phase 2 Rollout model, structured around four key milestones over three months: (1) a Digital Skills Review — a short survey to capture teachers' current digital skill levels; (2) Development of Master Teacher Trainers, where nominated teachers are upskilled to coach and mentor their colleagues; (3) Personalised Learning Pathways, where teachers complete online courses to close identified skill gaps; and (4) Introducing AI to students through courses and lessons promoting its ethical and effective use.
The workshop was informative, and well-organised, and ended by offering practical clarity on how to use Copilot for preparing lesson plans, worksheets, classroom activities and reports using clear pointers to explain our need for AI tools to get the best results.
