What We Do- Education
Education is one of the most powerful instruments for reducing poverty and inequality. Education is equally the to enhance India’s competitiveness in the global economy. Therefore, ensuring access to quality education for all, in particular for the poor and rural population, is central to the economic and social development of India, WHO The destiny of India is now being shaped in her classrooms.
Education Commission, 1964-66.

India is one among the countries who endorsed the Millennium Development Goals framed by United Nations.  The first goal is speaking, eradication of extreme hunger and poverty.   India as a developing nation having a large number of populations living below poverty line has to adopt various methods and efforts to eradicate extreme hunger and poverty.   This is an accepted and a proved phenomenon that education plays a vital role in eradicating poverty.  An educated country can only become developed country.   That is why the Millennium Development Goal – 2 speaks about achieving universal primary education.  The plight of primary education in India is of a concerning one to development players.  The rural India is still having measurable number of children who are out of the school campus.  These little buds are often found suffering in the streets, on the platforms and in the hazarded work centers.   They are vulnerable and more often victims of the social system.

Promotion of Quality Education
This project seeks to promote quality of education in over 460 formal schools we are working with across all of the 4 regions (Pune, Nashik, Velhe and Nagercoil) in India. It covers almost 1,38,148 children from all project area. The project is executed specifically in those schools where children come from low socio economic condition and have very limited resources to provide quality education.

Quality education includes the synchronized use of teaching aids, experiential learning, exposure visits, audio-visual aids, child friendly methods and teacher’s resource centre.

Pune Region - Utkarsh Sikshan Kendra
One of the major problems noticed in the community of Viman Nagar was the lack of financially accessible educational facilities. The children are considered as contributors to the family economy which led to retention of children at homes and hence no formal education. This resulted in many children not going to schools and remaining illiterate. The children get deprived of basic essentials leading to depressions, addictions, frustrations and negative social behavior. The people are unawareness of good hygiene practices and food requirements for good health.

To change this situation we started a play school for children in the slum community. After the children passed the play school, it was noticed that there was an abject lack of good schooling facilities in the area. The nearest school then was more than 2 kilometers away and the children had to cross a busy road to get to the school. This was a deterrent for many parents and as a result they did not send their children to school. One of the suggestions which came up from the community was to start a school in the vicinity of the slum so that most of the children could easily access the school. We acted upon the suggestion coming from the community and “Utkarsh Shikshan Kendra" was established.

The Utkarsh Shikshan Kendra hence aims to achieve hundred percent enrollments of children in school from the community. Equipped with this knowledge we strive to provide suitable opportunities and favorable environmental facilities to bring about maximum development of children through the school programme and practices in all areas. viz physical, intellectual development, emotional, social, and moral development.

The schools also aims at breaking the poverty spiral by giving a large number of children from the slum a chance to get quality education which is on par with that of the rest of the children in the city of Pune.

Long term Goal being to inculcate the following values: To be good human beings with a commitment to improving society. To be confident to achieve the upper limits of their academic and non-academic standards

Extra Curricular activities are interlinked and integrated with school subjects:
These activities are as follows :
Physical Education, Art, Craft, Music, Dance, Drama, Sports, Elocution and Needlework .This is to develop their aesthetic sense for appreciation, enjoyment, developing hobbies and later leading to selection of a profession.

In order to create interest in these activities for the children and their parents, the school organizes various programmes during the academic year. The cultural programs are planned in close association with other religious or social events. The chronogram of events is drawn up at the beginning of the year.

The secondary classes- of 8th, 9th, & 10th STD will commence once the permission is granted by the government education board. The classes will follow norms set forth by the regulating body. Presently tuition classes for secondary level education are held.

Education needs to be augmented with provision of complimentary services to assimilate the process of learning. Educationally relevant material according to the syllabus is made available at subsidized rates

Counseling sessions are conducted with the child and the family by the psychologists to tackle the emotional maladaptive behaviors arising due to non conducive environment and problems related to learning.

The government ensures that the teachers are periodically trained to meet with the needs of changing trends in education.

Center for Laborer’s Children
The sole aim of this activity is to cater to the educational needs and increase accessibility of children of construction labourer’s to basic education ensuring that all children who are not a part of the formal education system can also be entitled to education process, paving the way to a successful and productive future.

Modernization and industrialization have paved a good way for the development of the construction industry in India. Small towns and cities have become more urbanized, resulting in Expansion and growth of construction sector. Lack of greater employment opportunity elsewhere has also drawn large number of workers in this sector. There are more than 20 million of construction workers in India at present. Construction works in major cities in India like Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, Bangalore etc are expanding at a faster rate. Migration from different states to these states in India has now become so extensive that its impact is felt in every aspect of life. Migration has become a way of life to many, who are unskilled and semi skilled and find difficult to get better jobs within their natives and locality.

The construction labourers lead a nomadic life and thereby keep changing their places from one city to the other, one construction site to another for better earning of their livelihood. They suffer from extremely poor socio-economic conditions and hence this leads to practices that ultimately affect their children. The construction labourers are mostly illiterate and extremely ignorant about importance of education. Hence their migratory nature of work and their ignorant approach to education leads to exclusion of children from the education system. We have observed in the past that parental involvement in child’s education has a positive influence in phenomenon of inclusion of child in education system. Through this activity we plan to address such issues of ignorance of parents, enhancing their participation and involvement in child’s education apart from ensuring opportunities for education to the child through non formal education centers.

Velhe
Velhe block is one of the most backward blocks in Pune district, situated in Sahyadri mountain region. The entire Velhe block is in interior area and surrounded by the mountains. Velhe is around 60 Km from Pune city. This block is one of the 40 backward blocks in India. The areas between Panshet Dam on one side and Velhe (the Taluka head quarter) on the other are not connected by an all weather road until this day. On one hand it has a rainfall of 300-400 mm but the area faces scarcity of drinking water during summer

Basic needs of this block such as education, health, and infrastructure etc. is yet to be fulfilled completely. The transport facility to reach these villages is improper.

India faces challenges in providing quality early childhood development programs for all children. However, even as the quantity of education has increased over time, the quality of education, especially primary education, remains a cause for serious concern. The experience of many developing countries including India is that children do not master basic literacy and numeracy even after four and five years of schooling. Access to schools is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for ensuring the development of cognitive competencies.

The literacy rate in this block is very poor, especially women education. In Velhe block Zilha Parishad is running total 136 primary schools . Apart from Zilha Parishad. Education boards are running total 11 Secondary schools and 4 Higher Secondary school plus one Collage in Velhe block. According to the survey due to improper and sufficient education facility, school dropout rate is very high. The infrastructure facilities in these schools are not so good.

Most of the village population is illiterate and those who are bit educated are reached till primary education. The reason for these circumstances is the lack of importance of education and inadequate education facilities is villages.

Upto last year Zilha Parishad is running total 136 schools and 15 Wastisahala. but form 2009 onwards all of the wasti schools are converted in regular schools so the number of Zilha Parishad School for 2009 is 150.
Go to top of page
Therefore to overcome the above mentioned challenges and to provide quality education, we are working with 146 Zilha Parishad Schools since 2006. The sectors focuses on various activities related to children, teachers & parents via child council, scholastic material distribution, co-curricular activities, teacher training & parent teacher meeting.

Awakening Jagriti team works to reform the type of education that is provided by government & private charitable schools. Government & charitable private schools in India cater to the poorest sections of society and have suffered from years of indifference to the dismal plight of schools. They are plagued by several problems including poor infrastructure, poor teacher attendance, bad teaching quality and complete lack of sensitivity to the communities they cater to. The specific mission is to reform the government schooling system since most of India’s poorest send their children to these schools.

Panshet Hostel
Access to Education is one of the biggest problems faced by children living in remote areas of India. The number of secondary schools is few and far away from clustered dwellings. In some villages the children have to travel long distances on foot to go to school for higher education. In rainy season it is not possible for these children to go to schools as heavy rains cause the contact between villages to be cut off. Such situations results in the child remaining in the home and not attending school. Velhe has more than 150 villages; the population of each village does not exceed 50. Most of the people living in these villages pursue agriculture. They work in fields or tend to cattle.

Primary education is available in the villages but are at disadvantage due to “One room schools’ & "One Teacher School” concept of the Government. This system is followed due to shortage of teaching staff in remote locations. This results in high school drop outs, poor performance, and lack of motivation for schooling. The number of secondary school is also only ten in number resulting in non accessibility of education for many. This situation has forced many families to leave Velhe in search of education. The population of Velhe has over the years gone down, which is a very disturbing trend.

A residential facility close to a school will ensure the enrollment of children to school. It will give an impetus for girls to pursue education since the hostel will provide safe and secure environment away from home.

Providing hostel accomodation to increase eductional coverage in rural and remote areas
This activity aims at running a residential facility and providing access to children to continue their education. The hostel is already in existence and currently 100 children are benefiting from it. The hostel is called as “Savitri bai Phule Hostel” and is located in the town of Panshet. Panshet has a secondary school, police station, market and a primary health care centre, it is also a place where from all transport in Velhe is centralized. People from far of villages can reach either by boat or by road. The irrigation department has leased a warehouse for setting up of the residential facility at nominal rates to Awakening Jagriti.

The lease is annual in nature and has to be renewed every year. Apart from the existing facility we are also hopeful of leasing another warehouse which is adjacent to the hostel this will enable us in enrolling a greater number of children. The new facility will also help us in creation of space for sports and dining.

Hostel facilities are extended to both boys and girls from the neighboring villages where Awakening Jagriti is working. Children are admitted in the month of June. The facility is open only to children from the classes 5 to 12. Focus is on provision of an environment conducive to access to education and learning.

For overall development children have been assigned duties in the hostel. They contribute by performing their daily chores that is serving meals, keeping the hostel clean and maintaining discipline. To ensure children perform well in school regular tuition classes are being conducted. Their educational progress is closely monitored. Health Issues are taken care of by the organization. Nutritious balanced food is provided. Stationery and toiletries are available in the hostel stores at subsidized rates. Parents are requested to cooperate towards running of the hostel.

Nagercoil
Access to quality education is still being a dream to many of our children. Though India is implementing some specific projects towards achieving universal primary education, it is still struggling to reach such a huge population. India needs supportive hands from various quarters. In this perspective Awakening Jagriti is taking intensive efforts and meaningful interventions in providing quality education to the children of deprived community.

Awakening Jagriti started its education activities in Nagercoil in the year 2006. The poor academic quality, lack of infrastructure and the psycho social problems found among children had led Awakening Jagriti to implement the project,’ promotion of quality education’ in 45 selected Government Primary and Middle schools.

Quality education requires healthy and self motivated students, well – trained and highly capable teachers, ideal parents having interest on children’s education, enhanced infrastructure and conducive environment for the holistic development of children. By considering all these above stated requirements we are implementing various activities. They are :

Capacity building of teachers in the field of pedagogy
Trainings and workshops are being conducted to enhance the capacity of teachers. Newsletter is being published thrice in a year to provide a common platform to school teachers. Through teacher’s trainings and work shops more than 300 teachers have been benefited. Trainings were conducted on Classroom Management, Millennium Generation Psychology and Child Discipline. Through these trainings teachers were able to improve their profession.

Provision of complimentary educational aid material
The children who study in our sponsored schools come from poor socio economic background and their parents are unable to provide them basic educational requirements. Our Sponsored schools are also not able to cater to all the educational developmental needs due to financial constraints.

This directly affects the academic performance of children thus providing educational material aids to increase their interest and participation in education is felt necessary.

Increasing the participation of parent
We are conducting parent teachers meeting for developing interest and participation amongst parents in their child’s ed ucation. Various efforts are taken to strengthen PTA in the sponsored schools. Parents participation in their children’s education has been increased through theatre shows, resource persons and interactive sessions. Around 8000 parents took active participation in PTM.
