Out-of-School Education assistance program

One of the major objectives of Project Santushti is to provide out-of-school tuition assistance to school-going children in the age group of 6-14 by appointing trained tutors.

The objective of the out-of-school tuition assistance is to help improve learning outcomes among the beneficiary children who are studying in a school in class 1 to 8.

Critical Rates of School-Drop Outs in the Various States in India

Lack of Quality Education is One of the Major Reasons

In many states in India, many schools have a lesser number of teachers than they should ideally have. This affects the quality of education and learning outcomes. Besides, in many families, school-going children in the age group of 6-14 are first-generation learners. So, there is no one at home to help with studies. A very large number of families cannot afford any cost of home tuition or any form of additional assistance.

Project Santushti to Help with Out-of-School Tuition

• Project Santushti is in the process of appointing select class 12th passed candidates (for providing tuition to the children of class 1-5) and graduates (for providing tuition to the children of class 6-8) at the village level as Tutors and Supervisors.
• All selected tutors and supervisors will be trained through a Training of Trainers (ToT) program which is of 14-days duration.
• Post the 14-day training and on successful evaluation of performance, the trainees are appointed as tutors and supervisors.
• The tutors provide out-of-school tuition at a designated place in a village while the appointed supervisors ensure the quality of tuition assistance being delivered.
