Systemic reform through collaborative projects
 
The sole presence of a school doesn't ensure education. Retention of students, quality of curriculum, classroom transactions, and effectiveness of teacher development are some of the main areas where the delivery system has fared poorly and the major challenge still lies in bringing about qualitative changes in children's learnings.
 
Acknowledging this lacuna, the Trusts are fostering systemic reform in the existing education systems, institutions and educational structures while simultaneously engaging with the other stakeholders who are integral to the educational process for improving delivery of elementary education.
 
The key areas of engagement for grants under this sub-theme are as follows:
Intensive involvement in government schools for the improvement of learning levels of children through direct engagement with children by a local youth trained by the organisations, working in/after the school
Development of supplementary curricular material and promoting its use among students and teachers
Strengthening community involvement around the school
Teacher trainings with follow-up / classroom support in order to facilitate change in pedagogic practice among teachers
Engagement with cluster / block / district level authorities for enhancing effectiveness of school based support and supervision

Key grants
Strengthening elementary education in one block each, of Harda and Dewas districts of Madhya Pradesh – Phase II
Improving quality of elementary schools through multi-stakeholder involvement – Phase II
