सवाल
Which syllabus does this course follow?
It follows the NCTE 2014 based two-year B.Ed scheme followed by UP state universities (CCSU, MJPRU, CSJMU, Lucknow University and others). Where your own university's syllabus differs, the centre teaches your university's units and papers.

No. It is compulsory for all trainees because every subject is learnt through language.
Are activities included?
Yes, reading-strategy and writing tasks are practised so you can use them in internship lessons.
