Abstract

Through this paper the researcher is attempting to initiate a dialogue on facilitating each student of the school to arrive at the apex of their potential and constantly be able to redefine their ways and means for contributing towards a harmonious social environment. It is a well known fact for all of us that the existing school conditions and resources are insufficient for both – the school teachers and the teacher educators. And we in academia need to reflect upon how each student can be served the best even before our budget allocation is multiplied manifolds and a lot of material resources are arranged for. But for that we probably need to convince ourselves as to why it is important for each student to bloom? It may be understood in the light of student’s right as well as societal responsibility and the nation’s duty. Effective democracy is anyways a joint responsibility of all the agencies participating in it. However herein the focus would be the challenges faced by the teachers and teacher educators in understanding the criticality of their role in the entire scenario in general and with specific reference to the student from disadvantaged strata of the society. The paper endeavors to provide some suggestions about how these challenges can be converted into enhanced opportunities for enriching the educational experience of each of the student in a regular school.
