Current Reality:
As per Census 2011:
1.The state records fourth lowest literacy rate.2. The state records lowest female literacy rate.
3.As per ASER Report 2016, only 11% children in government schools can do basic subtraction which is the third lowest.
Some Roadblocks:
1.Lack of access to education.
2.Low parental investment.
3.Lack of support for the teachers.
4.Lack of motivation among teachers about the future of children.
There is a vicious circle of poor quality of education leading to conservative mindsets and vice versa, which is stopping youth in Rajasthan to reach their true potential.
Our Belief:
We at Sashaktikaran believe, for Rajasthan to truly prosper; we need to change the restricting mind-set of the society with a growth mind-set.
We aim to achieve this by providing excellent education to the future of Rajasthan.
We aim to achieve this by providing excellent education to the future of Rajasthan.
While backward mind-set enslaves, education empowers.
Our Solution:
Deep dived experience of education system while teaching at a government school during Teach For India fellowship, has led us to a realisation that a teacher or a parent alone can not positively impact learning standards of a child in school because school is a network of students, parents, teachers and the administrators.
All of them collectively come together to envision, learn and improve, until then the puzzle of education is extremely challenging to solve.
We want to create schools into learning system where everyone is collectively committed towards a collective vision and constantly learning to improve themselves for the best of children studying in school.
Project 2017
We have started our first pilot with one of the low income schools run by Raghukul Shiksha Samiti in Jaipur. In the next one year, we aim to achieve following goals:
- A collective school vision :Through multiple discussions between all the members of school network.
- 60%+ increase in number of students. This will happen by taking classroom impact to the community through monthly newsletters created by our children and final end of the year showcase.
- Our School Head would be consciously working towards investing her team in the School Quality Enhancement. This will happen with constant Leadership Development Conversations with the Principal.
For our project this year we have started this fund raising campaign. The money raised from this campaign will be used to create a learning atmosphere in school.
