In view of the growing population of Delhi and a corresponding demand of quality teachers in great numbers, the Government of NCT of Delhi felt the need to provide teacher education at different school levels. This gave birth to a college of Education in 1995 to provide different courses of education of the University of Delhi. The College imparts Bachelors of Education programme with an intake of 120 students. Later on in 1996 the college acquired its present name Maharshi Valmiki College of Education drawing inspiration from the high ideals of a great teacher, Valmiki.
A teacher has a rippling effect on the lives of the young and he/she can go in a big way to shape the destiny of a country. The College has shown brilliant results since 1996 in the Annual Examination of the University of Delhi. All through our students have done extremely well academic and co-curricular activities. And many of them have bagged prizes at inter-college level in various creative ventures. The year 2005-2006 has brought once again pride and recognition to the Maharshi Valmiki College of Education community.
B. Ed. comprises of a rigorous programme of preparation and training and therefore has a good combination of different theoretical subjects along with a diverse range of practical work.
