In December 2020, as the school restarted after many months of Covid restrictions, 7 teachers from 4 Western Tamang villages participated in an MTB-MLE training conducted in Jharlang. In spite of lost learning for most of 2020, teachers were hopeful that, if the schools stay open in the next months, they can use what they have learnt in the training to help the Western Tamang students catch up to basic skills they need to transition into the next school year (which starts in April).
