The new National Education Policy and Sustainable Development Goal 4 share the goals of universal quality education and lifelong learning. Although the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan has made tremendous gains in universalizing elementary education, much needs to be achieved in terms of quality education and students’ achievement levels. Much needs to be done at a higher level of education especially at High School (10th) level as well as for 12th standard. The dropout percentage of the students belonging to poor families especially girls at this level is much higher.
Most of the girls in higher classes are first-generation learners but due to the low quality of education being imparted in the government school are unable to cope up with the syllabus and despite having made the effort to stay in school overcoming various obstacles are unable to perform well, which in turn, sabotages their future. The families can’t support their help/remedial-classes as that is an additional economic burden on the parents. This situation gets worsened with the science students who find more difficulties to cope up with the syllabus. It is imperative to create opportunities by giving additional support for quality education belonging to the girl students of poor families. This will enable self-reliance, boosts economic growth by enhancing skills, and improves people’s lives by opening up opportunities for better livelihoods. Thus the project proposes to run remedial classes on the subjects-Science, Physics and Mathematics to raise girls student’s academic performance for the 10th and 12th standards.
