TESS-India (Teacher Education through School-based Support in India) is a multi-award-winning initiative that aims to strengthen and transform professional development and classroom practice in India. The programme provides an innovative, practical and scalable approach to pre- and in-service teacher education, with an emphasis on inclusive, participatory child-centred pedagogy.
At the centre of TESS-India is a toolkit of almost 200 freely available Open Education Resources (OER) in multiple languages. These TESS-India OER comprise of teacher development and school leadership units, professionally filmed videos of classroom teaching, and principles of practice. They are the product of a collaboration between more than 200 Indian and UK educational experts, led by The Open University UK, in partnership with the Government of India’s Ministry of Human Resource Development and with support of the British Council and Save the Children India.
