The Need

Dotted Line Icon

In Jammu and Kashmir, a significant portion of the population, especially in marginalized areas, faces severe challenges in accessing quality education. In government schools, where most of the children come from disadvantaged backgrounds, students often struggle with low performance, inadequate infrastructure, gaps in teacher quality, limited community involvement, and socio-emotional challenges. These factors contribute to high dropout rates, learning gaps, and overall disengagement from schooling, creating a pressing need for sustainable interventions that will ensure equitable access to education for all children.

    Quality Education Program Documentary

    Learn about our Quality Education Program. This program is focused on improving the quality of education in schools and children towards regular schooling by transforming government schools in the most remote areas of J&K. We identify challenges and loopholes in the systems that are negatively impacting the quality of education in the schools and the competency level of teachers and students. We use a comprehensive and sequential strategy which involves improvement and capacity enhancement of teachers, improvement in the performance of children through remedial education and an increased overall performance of the school. Out of school children surveys are conducted regularly to understand the number of school dropouts, the number of children not enrolled in schools and to develop remedial measures to bring out of school children back to school.SHOW MORE...SHOW LESS

FAQ’s

Dotted Line Icon
What is the beneficiary selection criteria?

We use well-defined selection criteria to identify communities who are suffering from poverty and who are vulnerable to internal and external factors that could affect the quality of their lives and education of their children. The socioeconomic condition of the community is one of the primary reasons for selecting the school (type of livelihood, lower literacy rates, higher percentage of dropouts, girl education). The school should be accessible to all the stakeholders (at district level) and should have all-weather road connectivity to ensure monitoring and evaluation of the project. For more information, please see our Process and Protocols HERE.
