Background
- Project reference came to ASHA through AID
- Was a WAH project in 2000
- Partially supported by Seattle in the third year
- Started off with coaching for 10th class students
- Then expanded the program to primary school
classes - Due to numerous requests from parents started 7th
class coaching - Started the Tsunami project support in 2006
- Currently pursuing approval for a proposal for
NREGA awareness campaign

Highlights
- Motivation and formation of Parents Committees
(these committees go on to monitor the
performance of schools) - Motivation / mobilization of Children thru
cultural performances - Enrolment of Children while paying attention to
first timers, drop outs, failed pupils etc. - Teacher training thrice every year
- Coaching for 9th and 10th classes both before and
after school - Coaching for primary classes after school
- During summer months (after 10th class exams) run
a 30 day cycle campaign in the project area to
spread awareness about child labor, importance of
literacy etc

Highlights contd
- Schools suffer from students dropping out due to
parents seasonally migrating out of the area for
livelihood reasons. - Tackling the problem of migration by creating a
system where the old people of the village take
care of the children. - Successful implementation of NREGA crucial to the
overall performance of the students - 10th graduates are either going for higher
education (by utilizing the reservation policies)
or joining technical / vocational courses. - These students have developed the culture of
relating to the community in whatever the manner
is possible to strengthen the education process
in the village - Importance is also given to retaining the 10th
class passed students in the community. - This helps tremendously in improving awareness.
Ex Educated youth form the backbone in campaign
activities for NREGA etc

Dropouts and intervention through more coaching
- Survey done by Sahanivasa has shown the following
dropout rates - At the Primary schooling level 30
- At the Seventh standard level 45
- At the Tenth standard level 25
- Primary reason for high drop out rate at 7th
standard is the failure in the 7th standard board
exam. - In this context Sahanivasa received requests from
the community to start 7th standard coaching.
(supported by SV last year) - Last year govt has abandoned the policy of
conducting 7th standard exam. - Children will face tremendous stress when facing
the board exam for the first time in 10th
standard. - After consulting with the parent and the teacher
community Sahanivasa has proposed moving the 7th
standard coaching to 9th standard coaching.

Future Direction
- 7th standard board exam has been cancelled.
Sahanivasa requested to move the 7th standard
coaching to 9th standard coaching. - Will continue with 7th this year and then move to
9th from next year. - Recent talk about expanding the program to all
classes from 7th through 10th. - Pros will improve the results.
- Cons are we addressing the real problem?
- Long association with Sahanivasa gives us a
unique advantage - We should attempt to track the progress of
children - To assess the pass and dropout rates in case of
primary schools - To assess the career progress in case of 10th
class students - Overall economic progress of the community
(metrics ???) - How long should we keep funding this project?
(self sustainability issues)
