The Confederation of Chang Students’ Union (CCSU) launched Mission Wesen with the motto ‘Child Progressive Assessment” on April 25 at CBLT Resource Centre, Tuensang. The mission was primarily launched for 12 Government Primary Schools (Pilot Project) under Chang jurisdiction with the vision to produce qualitative education. According to a press release from CCSU president, Chingmak Kumchuba and general secretary C. Pongsu it was launched because many rural students within Chang jurisdiction from their educational survey showed that reading simple sentences or solving basic arithmetic still remained a challenge. The Education Board of CCSU will set the syllabus for the academic year and will conduct exams for Class 1 to 3.
The orientation programme was held on April 24. Roles of Village Education Committee, Village Councils, PTA representatives, Church leaders, Students’ Unions and Teacher’s In-Charge in the mission were presented by different resource persons. The Launching Programme was graced by L. Jamithung Lotha, Deputy Commissioner, Tuensang as special guest and Sanchisao Lotha, Assistant DEO, Tuensang also spoke on the importance of the involvement of Students’ Bodies in bringing about changes in the education field. CCSU has appealed to all citizens to support the mission so as to achieve the core purpose of the mission.
