DESCRIPTION :

The  principal  objective  of  Vallabh  Vidyalaya  has  been  to render  rural service  and  to  achieve  total  development of the  students of the backward communities.The primary teachers could be considerd to be providers  of rural services  for all  time¸ and  to  provide them proper training for teaching  as  well  as rural service¸ a basic teachers? training college was started.       

After independence¸ a great change was occuring in the field of education. The Government started to introduce basic education in the primary schools and the syllabus of the primary schools  was duly modified introducing  udyog as a  subject in that  syllabus.This  change  necessitated  to  train  the primary teachers and educational inspectors of different  categories. 

The Government selected Vallabh Vidyalaya as a centre of such training in Gujarat Training classes for the primary  teachers and inspectors  were  started  at  Vallabh Vidyalaya. In those classes the trainees were to be given training  in spinning  and weaving. Moreover¸ they had to be trained to  discard  all  sorts of discriminatory  practices¸ to wash their clothes and dishes themselves¸ to create  new relationship  of  equality and  fraternity. Keeping this in view¸ no servant or cook was employed in  their service  whatsoever. In  the beginning this type of rigorous  schedule  pricked many  of  the  trainees. Some of them were inclined  to  go  away  leaving  the  class. But Shri Shivabhai?s goodwill and loving treatment ultimately removed all their misgivings  and  they could not  leave. The duration of  the training was three months¸  at  the end of which a new batch joined. In  this way total 3¸463 teachers and inspectors received training in the Vidyalaya.

In 1952¸ while unveiling Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel?s  statue  in  the Vidyalaya¸ Shri Morarjibhai Desai had announced that a basic teachers? training college ashould  be started in Vallabh Vidyalaya at proper time. Accordingly the college was started in 1965.
