The school hopes to act as a bridge between the public/private schools and the children, inculcating among them the concept of education. The literacy rate among tribal men is negligible, and zero among women. The children are brought up in an extremely unhealthy atmosphere of alcoholism, gambling and other negative influences. The school hopes to act as a bridge between the public/private schools and the children, inculcating among them the concept of education. The school is also planning to introduce medicare system so that they can tackle seasonal sickness and control rates of absenteeism.
LEVEL OF EDUCATION
The school provides for basic literacy up to Nursery, Lower K.G. and Higher K.G. The school utilises an informal teaching methodology, which is suitable for the children who belong to the tribal and underdeveloped environment. Once our students are placed in the high schools they become a part of the mainstream of educational environment.
DETAILS
The group was brought to the notice of an Asha NYC/NJ volunteer during a visit to Jamshedpur in October 1999. The group was then requested to submit a project proposal, which was duly sent and reviewed by Asha-NYC/NJ in December '99. Currently Asha-NYC/NJ, with the help of Asha chapters in India, is organising a more thorough site visit of the project.
