A popular Malayalam film has sparked a transformative initiative in Telangana’s Jangaon district by introducing the innovative ‘U turn’ seating arrangement in schools. The concept, originating from the 2024 film ‘Stharathi Sreekunttan’ by director Vinesh Viswanath, promotes equality among students by eliminating traditional front and back benches. This new classroom layout ensures every student has equal visibility and access, fostering a more inclusive learning environment. Over 286 primary and upper primary schools have already adopted this progressive approach, with more schools in line to follow suit. Explore how this unique seating arrangement is reshaping education in Telangana.
