To establish report between the teacher and the taught, all the students are divided into tutorial groups. Each group is placed under the guidance of a tutor who keeps records of the activities and progress of the students of the group during their stay in the college. Character certificates are issued on the basis of these records, i.e., visits to NGO's, two paper presentations by the student and participation in the college activities/functions etc.
The college has three (3) units of NSS and participation in NSS activities is compulsory for all the students of B.Ed. and M.Ed. The N.S.S. Unit of the college provides opportunities to the college students to participate in projects of community service in the adjoining localities. The basic aim of the N.S.S. is to make new links between the students of the college and the people. The students are encouraged not only to join the community in execution of development projects but also to share their knowledge and cultural activities with the members of the community.
The unit provides counselling services to the College students. It arranges sessions in guidance and counselling for prospective teachers and educational and career conferences for the benefit of the students. The College also provides 24 hours stress management helpline.
To develop the creative talent among students, a number of co-curricular activities are organised in the college. It is obligatory for every student to enroll himself/herself as a member of the literary and cultural society.
Another important feature of the College is Value Education Period whereby every tutorial group has to present it on every Monday thus inculcating a habit of working in a group and also disciplining oneself. Value Education is an important feature of the college life and is organised on every Monday. Students are required to contribute speeches, devotional songs etc. in their assemblies or any other event having moral, spiritual and education value. It is compulsory for all to attend on all Mondays.
