Rayat Shikshan Sansthas Azad College of Education - Satara

Overview

“ There should not be a village without school and a school without a trained teacher.” This is the ideal, the founder of the Rayat Shikshan Sanstha, the late Padmabhushan Dr. Karmaveer Bhaurao Patil cherished and earnestly struggled for throughout his life. He sincerely believed, a teacher from masses who knows the rural community with all its ills can effectively instruct the students belonging to the rural areas. How to get trained teachers in such a large number was a genuine problem. To fulfil the growing demand of the trained teachers for the secondary schools which he has started in nooks and corners in remote areas of Maharashtra for the education of masses, he strongly felt the need of having sanstha’s own secondary teachers’ training college.
