Awesome infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: About 90% of students were placed in our course. I think the highest 1.40 LPA and lowest 0.5 LPA offered in our course. I don't know about the recruiting companies. Most of the students of our batch are engaged in various departments, especially in the teaching department.

Infrastructure: Classrooms, the library, and even the hostel rooms were very clean and tidy. There are separate hostel rooms for boys and girls. The facilities were awesome, especially for water. Food was available in the mess, but there was no canteen. Sports materials were available

Faculty: The teachers were very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching staff was very friendly and approachable for anything related to study. Their teaching quality was fabulous. According to me, the exam was not tough. In our time, the pass percentage was almost 98%.

Other: Right from my childhood, I wanted to become a teacher. That's why I chose that course. I wish the food given by them will better. I was very interested in extracurricular activities.

Recommended for students who are looking for a B.Ed. college.

Placements: The B.Ed. department of our college provides teaching internship programs in various renowned schools during the course. Even during the covid lockdown situation, online classes and assistance are very good. Notes and suggestive questions are provided by all our subject teachers. Guidance is provided to complete internal assignments. I'm very much satisfied with my decision of taking admission in this college.

Infrastructure: The classrooms and library facilities are good. The college is now expanding to provide even better facilities. It has fully air-conditioned classrooms and student rooms. The classrooms are very spacious and have large projectors. Professors provide good study materials on every topic of the syllabus.

Faculty: The professors are very helpful and kind, and they solve all our doubts on assignments and exams with utmost care and patience. I'm very grateful to all the faculty members of our B.Ed. department. Professors provide good quality study materials for every topic of the syllabus.

Other: The campus is not very crowded as they accept only around 50 students per course, and each floor of the building is dedicated for each department. It has plenty of space to park cars and bikes inside the campus. Part of the campus is now under reconstruction for providing better facilities in future.

Loreto College is one of the best for B.Ed in Kolkata.

Placements: The placement scenario in Loreto College for B.Ed course students is quite good. Every year, around 80% of students get placed via college and the rest also get off-campus calls. Schools from different parts of the country Gujarat, Kerala, Maharashtra, Delhi, West Bengal, etc., demand teachers passed out from Loreto College. During the two years course, many good students also get chances for internships as guest teachers in many schools within Kolkata by the college.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are well-equipped with comfortable seating arrangements for students. Air-conditioners and Wi-Fi are available in every class. The library has well-stocked books that a student of Loreto College requires during their course span. It has more than 50,000 books. The languages in which books are available are English, Hindi, Bengali, French, German, and other European languages. The college has a hygienic canteen with affordable meals for students. Free meals are also available for students in need. Good quality of food is served there. There is no hostel as such for B.Ed students, but, however, students can opt for PGs outside the campus since the college is in the city center Park Street.

Faculty: Teachers here are among the best in the whole region. They are very helpful and very knowledgeable with good teaching quality. The course is well-designed to fit the modern atmosphere with practical understandings like internships that are mandatory for every student. Extra-curricular activities like yoga, art, dance, music, etc., are also a part and mandatory with the regular studies, which also carry marks in the semesters. Every student in the class is also asked to be attentive and communicate as much as they can even in online classes videos/face cams are asked to turn on. Passing the semesters is not a big deal. Just a student needs to focus on studies which are needed. The pass percentage is around 35%.

Other: Every year cultural fests are held with a majority of students as participants. Drama, singing, dancing, etc., are a part of the annual fest. The college is well-connected being at the city center, Park Street. The nearest metro station is just 350m away. Transport systems like buses, auto, taxi, trams, etc., are available from outside the campus. Kolkata Airport is 17KMs away. There are no such recommendations to make the course better.

It is a good college with good infrastructure and atmosphere.

Placements: Mainly it's a general college where B. Ed courses are also taught. It's a very renowned and old college of Howrah. Many noted persons, from the college, get placed in various working field i.e, professors, scientists, teachers, etc. After the compilation of B.Ed, many students secured their jobs as school teachers.

Infrastructure: Facilities provided were not excellent but good for middle-class students. Labs were efficient, and classrooms were good in condition. Some rooms have air conditioners and a Wi-Fi facility was also available but not in a continuous manner. Hostel facility and messes were available. The canteen was good enough.

Faculty: Teachers were helpful and qualified. Teaching quality was good, and teachers helped students in their subjects. Semester exams were not so easy on campus. The guard was hard enough. If I say for pass percentage it was about 100%.

It is one of the best colleges in town.

Placements: The B.Ed department at St. Xavier's College, Kolkata has no placement cell. We had to force-drop our resume at different schools to get a job. Top role offered in our course are that of a school teacher starting from class 6th - 12th.

Infrastructure: All the facilities provided by our college are top-notch from smart classrooms to air-conditioning in all rooms. The infrastructure is great. Hostel facilities are good as well but way too strict as I have heard from my friends. We also have a yoga room, a basketball court and an indoor games room. The food served in the canteen lacks variety.

Faculty: Teachers in our college are helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. They teach us with the utmost care and provide all necessary notes. The course curriculum, is given by NCERT and it includes a lot of irrelevant topics to learn like yoga and sports. Some of them are of no use later on to students.
