Kanpur: The ministry of education's flagship initiative SATHEE (Self-Assessment Test and Help for Entrance Exams), developed by IIT Kanpur, officially launched live JEE and NEET coaching classes for Class 11 and 12 students in govt schools of Dadra and Nagar Haveli & Daman & Diu.
The initiative, carried out in collaboration with the UT directorate of education, aims to provide free, high-quality coaching to students preparing for India's most competitive entrance exams.
The live classes officially commenced on July 8, and are being conducted during regular school hours using smart classroom infrastructure installed in govt schools. These sessions are delivered by experienced faculty and mentors from IITs and AIIMS, offering expert-led academic guidance to students at no cost.
Prof Manindra Agrawal, Director, IIT Kanpur, said, " SATHEE is bringing structured, expert-led preparation for JEE and NEET into classrooms across the country. We are proud to see the platform being implemented in Dadra and Nagar Haveli & Daman & Diu, and we look forward to supporting many more such initiatives that bridge the opportunity gap in education."
Led by EdTech director at SATHEE, Rahul Garg, the orientation provided educators with a comprehensive walkthrough of the platform's features and teaching methodologies. Educators were trained to use SATHEE's live and recorded lectures, mock tests, personalised learning tools and multilingual content to better support students preparing for highly competitive national entrance exams.
