Former England football captain and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Sir David Beckham visited an MJPAPBCWREIS residential school for girls in Visakhapatnam today to see Project-Based Learning (PBL) in action. His visit is part of a wider Mantra4Change programme supported by Education Above All that is improving classrooms across Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Odisha, and Nagaland. Sir David Beckham with students ofMJPAPBCWREIS residential school inVisakhapatnam Sir Davids visit, confirmed in a social media update posted late on Wednesday night, brought national attention to a hands-on approach to schooling that places student projects, teamwork, and real-world problem-solving at the centre of learning. Mantra4Change, in partnership with the MJP Society and supported by Education Above All (EAA), has redesigned teaching and learning in 107 residential schools across Andhra Pradesh, reaching roughly 18,000 students and building the capacity of 107 school leaders. The PBL programme has been integrated across English, Mathematics, and Science, turning traditional classrooms into active learning spaces where students learn by doing, collaborate on projects, and present solutions to community problems. On the ground in Visakhapatnam During his visit, Sir David met with students and teachers at the school, observing how Project-Based Learning comes alive in everyday classrooms. He began by sitting in on a live PBL session before being guided by students to a small exhibition where children presented projects across English, Mathematics, and Science. He also joined a group of students for a tree-planting activity, where children demonstrated how they scan and label saplings with digital IDs. In the school library, Sir David participated in a reading circle and spoke with children about their favourite books. The visit concluded outdoors, where students invited him to join a lively one-touch football drill. School leaders shared how these varied activities reflect the PBL approach, boosting student confidence, encouraging collaboration, and helping children connect learning with real-life contexts. In his Instagram post, Sir David said, Great day in India going back to school supporting Education Above Alls project based learning initiatives so much fun . It gives us great joy that Sir David Beckham chose to visit one of our MJP schools. Its a proud moment for all of us in the MJP society. His presence at our school in a place like Kothavalasa is a beautiful reminder that when we work with the right intent and dedication, extraordinary things can happen. Project-based Learning has energised our classrooms, and we hope to keep nurturing this spirit of learning , said P. Madhavi Latha, Secretary, MJPAPBCWREIS. Project-Based Learning shifts the focus from rote recall to applied understanding. It builds transferable skills, communication, critical thinking, creativity, while lifting measurable academic outcomes. The Mantra4Change-EAA partnership is an example of how targeted support, teacher development and curriculum redesign can scale classroom practices across states. Santosh More, Co-Founder of Mantra4Change , said, Sir David Beckhams visit is an inspiration for all of us and a powerful signal that innovation in our government schools matters. Project-Based Learning is raising childrens aspirations, and moments like this strengthen our resolve to work with governments and communities to make such learning the norm . The visit also adds fresh momentum to Shikshagraha, a people-powered national movement being co-built by Mantra4Change that is working to improve one million public schools across India. Sir Davids presence and public endorsement of innovative classroom practices like Project-Based Learning strengthens the movements core message: that communities, teachers, governments and civil society must come together to transform everyday schooling. The visibility generated by this visit helps amplify Shikshagrahas call for collective action and accelerates its efforts to ensure every child in a public school has access to meaningful, engaging and future-ready learning. About Mantra4Change Mantra4Change is a non-profit organisation transforming public schools in India through educational leadership. Our approach involves driving continuous school improvements by empowering education leaders, transforming schools to create an enriching learning experience, and inspiring civil society organisations across India to collectively work towards transformation in education. We aim to drive sustainable, continuous school improvements across 150,000 schools by 2025.
Jonassen Pulls Out Of WPL Auction Due To Injury, Other Left-arm Spinners In Sharp Focus
Mannat Kashyap Shuchi Upadhayay: Hours ahead of the 2026 Womens Premier League (WPL) mega auction, Australias left-arm spin bowling all-rounder Jess Jonassen has been ruled out from the player pool owing to an injury. Sources familiar with the matter told IANS on Thursday that Jesss unavailability was formally communicated to all five franchises during the mandatory pre-auction briefing on Wednesday. Jess had been a part of Delhi Capitals (DC) in the first three WPL seasons, where they finished as runners-up on all occasions. Though Jess is turning out for Brisbane Heat in the ongoing Womens Big Bash League (WBBL), it is understood that a shoulder issue she has been managing for an extended period is the reason behind her unavailability for the WPL auction and subsequent season. A few teams were keen on getting her in the auction due to Sophie Molineux not registering, but now that strategy has been changed and back up plans being discussed due to her unavailability being told a day prior. It wont come as a surprise if the other left-arm spinners, especially in the Indian players pool, will have more takers for them or their eventual price sees an increase in the mega auction, said sources. Other prominent left-arm spin bowling options who are also handy all-rounders are Englands Sophie Ecclestone, South Africas Chloe Tryon, as well as Indias N Sree Charani, Radha Yadav, Tanuja Kanwer, and are followed by youngsters like Parunika Sisodia, Bharti Rawal, Vaishavi Sharma, Ayushee Shukla, Mannat Kashyap Shuchi Upadhayay and Triveni Vasistha. It is also understood that in the pre-auction briefing, all five franchises were told that India opener Pratika Rawal, wicketkeeper-batter Yastika Bhatia and uncapped seamer VJ Joshitha are nursing injuries, though their names remain in the auction pool. Pratika is recovering from an ankle injury sustained in the World Cup league game against Bangladesh in Navi Mumbai, while Yastika had to undergo an ACL surgery after being ruled out of the World Cup due to injuring her left knee in the pre-tournament camp in Visakhapatnam. It is also understood that the injured trio cannot be counted towards the mandatory 15-member squad (though 18 is the maximum squad strength for the competition), and if they are picked, teams cannot get a replacement for them. Pratika is recovering from an ankle injury sustained in the World Cup league game against Bangladesh in Navi Mumbai, while Yastika had to undergo an ACL surgery after being ruled out of the World Cup due to injuring her left knee in the pre-tournament camp in Visakhapatnam. Also Read: Live Cricket Score The 2026 WPL mega auction will begin with the marquee set featuring eight players Sophie, India duo of Deepti Sharma and Renuka Singh Thakur, followed by Australian pair of Alyssa Healy and Meg Lanning, South Africas Laura Wolvaardt and New Zealand duo of Sophie Devine and Amelia Kerr.

For the first time, IFFI will welcome audiences with a colourful, lively showcase where stories, music, and characters come to life.

The parade, starting from the Entertainment Society of Goa, is expected to turn the streets of Goa into a living canvas of Indias cinematic and cultural brilliance. Leading the spectacle will be magnificent state tableaus from Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, and Goa, each presenting a vivid portrait of identity and imagination. Andhra Pradesh highlights the charm of Visakhapatnams golden shores, the mystic valleys of Araku, and the pulsating spirit of Tollywood. Haryana offers a colourful fusion of folklore, theatre, culture, and cinematic pride. Goa, the festivals long-standing host, forms the emotional heart of the procession, celebrating its cosmopolitan warmth and timeless bond with world cinema. Among the highlights is the National Film Development Corporations (NFDC) 50 Years tableau, honouring five decades of nurturing filmmakers and fostering cinematic innovation across the nation. Marching alongside the states are grand cinematic tableaus from Indias leading production houses, each a moving universe of storytelling excellence. The mythic power of Akhanda 2 , the emotional depth of Ram Charans Peddi , the creative force of Mythri Movie Makers, the iconic legacy of Zee Studios, the global vision of Hombale Films, the Odia heritage of Bindusagar, Ultra Medias centenary homage to Guru Dutt, and the vibrant storytelling realm of WAVES OTT all converge to showcase the boundless diversity of Indian cinema. Opening the parade with breathtaking energy is the Central Bureau of Communications Bharat Ek Soor , a spellbinding folk symphony featuring over a hundred artists from sixteen states. Bhangra meets Garba, Lavani flows into Ghoomar, Bihu breathes beside Chhau and Nati, culminating in a majestic Tricolour formation that embodies Indias unified cultural heartbeat. Adding charm, nostalgia, and delight are Indias beloved animation favourites, Chhota Bheem and Chutki, and Motu Patlu and Bittu Bahanebaaz, stepping off the screen to greet audiences with laughter, warmth, and playful spirit. The Opening Parade of IFFI 2025 is more than an inauguration; it is a cinematic overture and a cultural promise. As Goa prepares for this extraordinary beginning, IFFI invites the world to witness India not just as a nation of stories, but as a nation in motion, moving forward in one unforgettable rhythm, said officials.

IAF Sukhoi-30 MKI to get advanced jammer pods; DRDO develops new autonomous underwater vehicles
NEW DELHI: The Indian Air Forces (IAF) frontline Sukhoi-30 MKI fighter aircraft will see enhanced capabilities as the Ministry of Defence (MoD) moves to acquire Aircraft Self Protection Jammer (ASPJ) pods. In addition, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has developed a new generation of man-portable Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (MP-AUVs) for mine countermeasure missions. In a Request for Information (RFI), the MoD stated, The Ministry of Defence intends to procure 100 sets of Aircraft Self Protection Jammer (ASPJ) pods along with associated equipment for Su-30 MKI aircraft. Delivery of the ASPJ pods is expected to be completed within 36 months. The proposed ASPJ pods will be integrated with the Su-30 MKI to jam and spoof enemy airborne and ground radars, the RFI added. Sources noted that while the RFI covers 100 ASPJ pods, additional Sukhoi aircraft are expected to be fitted with this capability. The RFI is a formal process seeking information from potential suppliers about a product or service. The first batch of Su-30 MKI jets was inducted into the IAF in September 2002. Currently, around 272 Sukhoi jets serve in the IAF. The Sukhoi fleet has undergone modifications enabling it to carry the air-launched BrahMos supersonic missile, allowing long-range precision strikes against enemy targets, including hostile aircraft carriers, with accuracy by day and night under all-weather conditions. The Su-30 MKI is an all-weather air-dominance fighter with multi-role capabilities, capable of undertaking long-distance air combat and ground-attack missions. Autonomous underwater vehicles for mine countermeasure missions The Naval Science and Technological Laboratory (NSTL), Visakhapatnam, under DRDO, has successfully developed a new generation of man-portable Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (MP-AUVs) for mine countermeasure missions. Dr Samir V. Kamat, Secretary, Department of Defence R&D and Chairman, DRDO, said, The MP-AUV offers rapid response capability with reduced operational risk and logistic footprint for naval mine warfare applications. The system comprises multiple AUVs equipped with side-scan sonar and underwater cameras for real-time detection and classification of mine-like objects. Onboard deep learning-based target recognition algorithms enable autonomous classification, significantly reducing operator workload and mission time. To enhance situational awareness, a robust underwater acoustic communication system has been integrated to facilitate inter-AUV data exchange during operations, the MoD added. Recent field trials at NSTL/Harbour have successfully validated the systems key parameters and mission objectives.
