The mission statement of the institution is ‘“To create intellectually alert, professionally competent, morally upright, emotionally integrated, spiritually enlightened, physically sound, socially conscious and committed teachers.” This mission statement of the institution is further spelled out in the form of objectives through which it endeavors to achieve its mission.

The above mentioned objectives of the institution specifically highlight the needs of the society in terms of empowering student teachers to tackle the classroom problems effectively following the right and scientific methodology through constant research, sensitizing student-teachers with the national, global and environmental issues and inculcating an attitude towards undertaking initiatives to solve them in productive ways. Student teachers and teacher educators always get involved in different community services like giving free tuition to the poor and weak students, donating blood, helping the people at the old age home, service at different orphanages and the like. The institution has also provided services that include teaching in regular classrooms and providing educational resources to neighboring schools and colleges.
The objectives clearly indicate the necessity to support the student teachers in the best possible manner by inculcating individual, social, emotional and intellectual competencies through various programs and workshops. The institution aims at training student teachers in imparting and evaluating learning experiences through its practice teaching program, the pedagogical analysis, the year-planning, unit-planning, lesson planning and question paper setting and other co-curricular activities like SUPW, community living camp and extension activities
The institution fosters in the minds of the student teachers self-dependency and self-efficacy in learning by adopting teaching methods such as peer tutoring, co-operative learning, seminars, self-study, supervised study and e-learning strategies. The institution also provides the student teachers an opportunity to collaborate with experts in the field of education by organizing talks and seminars on current educational topics. Moreover the institution also helps to equip student-teachers to use the latest technology in teaching-learning.
The school sector and the society at large gain benefits by fulfilling the aforesaid objectives, as we disperse quality teachers with excellence into the public. Most of the student-teachers secure jobs even before completing the course and by exhibiting their teaching skills in the practice teaching schools. The institution feels proud to find many of its students in several service sectors other than education too.
