Please welcome Mr. Srikant Basappa Gavi in this episode of ‘Pratibimba’.
He has been working as the HM at the Higher Primary School of Jakli, Rhona Taluk, Gadag. He has a total of 27 years of experience. When he joined service at Mannangi, to demonstrate how ‘Gulliver’ looked, his team made a 20-feet tall structure with dry hay! It made the learning very effective. When he joined, there were only 32 students and the school had classes only till grade 4. He built it up till grade 7 and for 110 students by the time he moved on.
At his next school at Abbigeri, the school had 400 children! It was a bigger and better educated place than Mannangi. Mr. Gavi was able to gather contribution from the public and improve the infrastructure. The school stood first at the Taluk level Kabaddi contest for 5 years!
He was trained at Dharwad DIET for 45 days. He was able to train children with special needs. He was able to distribute a grant-in-aid of Rs. 600/- per child in the Abbigeri cluster.
When he went to the school at Kurahatti, he realised his teaching was based more on lectures and not on activities. When he made the change, the school achieved 100% result at SSLC. When ‘Nali kali’ was introduced, he was able to train 600 teachers on the new approach. He started a unique programme of teaching through movies! He has been a resource person for various teacher training programmes across the state.
When Mr. Gavi came to the school in Rhona, he noticed there was no toilet for the children. So he went around collecting contribtuions from the community, and built a toilet for the kids with that money. He was also able to get the Edu-Sat programme to the school, a first in the district.
His current assignment started during the time of the pandemic. He has utilised it to plant saplings in the school. He used his free time to spread awareness among the villagers about various health issues.
He praises the help of the locals and of the SDMC in painting the school.
