Work Education

The brain must be educated through the hand. Work Education provides the basis for building up proper attitudes towards work developing favorable work values and habits, imparting necessary knowledge related to work, and developing appropriate work skills, which can help the students to become productive and self-reliant in meeting their day-to-day needs and those of their families and communities.
