Education is the manifestation of perfection already in Man.

                                                                                                       Swami Vivekananda

 
The College is situated in the outskirts of Calcutta amidst a rural background. The students mostly belong to scheduled caste and other minority group. They have limited financial ability and are predominantly first generation learners. However,
their thirst for knowledge and great physical endurance to overcome all obstacles is an asset and driving force for the College. The College primarily follows the affliated University syllabus but it has been a regular practice to achieve all round development of the students.

The goals of the College has been

 
 To help students to achieve their potential in a variety of settings beyond the classroom.
 To build a value system through the regular process of mentoring and interactions.
 To develop among the students a sense of self-awareness and an understanding of the college as well as of the community needs and opportunities.
 To help students to be physically fit and have a healthy mind and life.
 
The best practices that have been adopted by the college are as follows:
1. Inculcate a value system and promote employability of the Students
 
Objective
 
The College implements undergraduate program as prescribed by the University of Calcutta which enables our students to pursue higher studies in different Universities in the state and country. Apart from this given the natural aptitude of the students of being atheletic the College gives them the opportunity to find employment in police and defence force. Thus the objective of the College is to help and guide the students in finding employment. The N.C.C unit of the College serves relentlessly to achieve this. Apart from the institution constantlythrives to achieve all round development of the students through the teaching learning
process.
 
Context
 
The College is situated in rural areas and majority of the students are from rural backgrounds and first generation learners. The College tires to ensure employability of the students apart from the academic field. The N.C.C unit of the College in one way through which the students find employment as well as perform the duty of serving the nation.
 
The practice
 
The College has N.C.C unit with a strength of approximately 120 students. The N.S.S unit has a student enrolment of 100 students. Apart from this the College has a well equipped gymnasium which provides the students resources, guidance to find employment.
 
Evidence of Success
 
Every year many students find employability in the defence, police and other allied forces. In the year 2020-21 atleast 2 student of the College found employment in the West Bengal Police Force and BSF. Apart from this approximately 30 students have found employment in the defence force. The lockdown due to Covid pandemic curtailed and hampered the process of reaching out to the students. Presently the association with the students have been restored and the students are constantly interacting with the teachers.
 
2. Promote social justiee, ensure equity and increase access to higher education through provision of financial assistance to students
 
Objective
 
Another best practice is the financial assistance given to students who have secured good grades and achievement in University examination and University or District Sports. Every year university rankers, first class holders are given assistance/rewards in the College annual social programme. Apart from this the Students Credit Card Scheme (SCCS) initiated by the West Bengal State Government as per the Gazette notification in 30.6.2021 financial assistance is extended to all students who apply. In the year 20-21 among 80 applicants one girl student was approved by the College to receive bank loan through the SCCS. The College also assists the students in getting the various state and central scholarships which helps them to continue their studies given the fact that majority of the students come from a financially weak background.
 
Context
 
The College is situated in rural areas and majority of the students are from rural backgrounds and first generation learners. The College tires to assist the students financially in pursing their studies.
 
The practice
 
Every year university rankers, first class holders are given assistance/rewards in the College Social. However, the countrywide lockdown prevented such measures to a large extent in 2020-21. Apart from this the Students Credit Card Scheme initiated by the West Bengal State Government as per the Gazette notification in 30.6.2021 financial assistance is extended to all students who apply.
 
Problems encountered
 
The this the College being an aided College it has financial constraints and therefore cannot provide best facilities/assistance to all students. Further, the countrywide lockdown from March 2020 resulted in switching all activities in the online mode. Since our students are not technologically sound and have financial constraints so it created problem for the Institution in reaching out to the students. Presently the pandemic phasing out has restored the connection with the students.
The College with all the limitations and constraints is constantly trying to reach out to its students and achieve the goal as set by Swami Vivekananda.
