Vidyalaya Project

Paving the way for a nation's glorious future,
by strengthening the backbones of it's schooling infrastructure!

The really critical aspect of the Indian public education system is its low quality. Even in educationally advanced States, an unacceptably low proportion of children who complete all grades of primary school have functional literacy. Moreover, the quality of `literates' of the school system is very low. The actual quantity of schooling that children experience and the quality of teaching they receive are extremely insufficient to any mastery of basic literacy and numeric skills.

Though there are primary schools established at the proximity of all the population, many schools have only one or two classrooms and most do not have running water and toilets. These features are not conducive to a learning environment. The really critical aspect of the Indian public education system is its low quality.

The objective of Vidyalaya program is help the Govt schools that are providing formal education in rural areas in Andhra Pradesh. Spandana is been supporting these schools that have been neglected by local communities and government officials. The goal of this program is to provide amenities, tools which can facilitate good teaching environment and improve learning techniques in government schools by which we can help the children attending these from low socio-economic backgrounds. In this program, the schools get the following benefits from Spandana.

• Infrastructure Development (Class Rooms, Desks, Library etc)
• Better environment by providing good sanitation & amenities
• Extra teacher (paid volunteer) until government provides sufficient teachers for existing students
  
• Learning/Teaching material for students
