Our school support programme focuses on ensuring access to quality education for all.We help build up basic school infrastructure - boundary walls, black boards, furniture, teaching aids,sports equipment. We hold workshops for teachers to help them teach better and trained local women as education volunteers to conduct regular classes for pre-primary education. We re-activated VECs so that they can take over responsibility of ensuring proper functioning of the schools. Co-currucular activities and Balotsavs were promoted in schools to offer children an opportunity to display their talents and have some fun.
We initiated basti schools in some areas - non-formal education classes to take care of out of school children. These provided basic education and acted as bridge classes for the children. We’ve collaborated with other organisations to start village knowledge centres in a few villages to impart basic computer education.
Ambuja Manovikas Kendra in Ropar has special educators, speech therapists and social workers providing mentally challenged children with a conducive environment for their optimum holistic development. |
