3. DISCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT :

RURAL CARE MINISTRIES in engaged with rural communities in Vatticherukuru& Ponnuru Revenue Mandals in Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh, systematically educating the unlettered parents about the merits of sending their children to schools. Apart from sensitizing the parents and Teachers about the need to impart education to girl children and campaigning for their enrollment, the Ministry is engaged in providing School gear, Tution Fee and nutritional milk and egg besides helping them in making out their learning deficits through Supplementary coaching to these first generation learners. This intervention has earned all around applause and could motivate the poor communities to send their children to schools. Our Supplementary coaching to the first generation learners helps them in overcoming the learning deficits thereby preventing them from dropping out.

The task of addressing poor quality education requires a multi-pronged approach. Rural Care Ministry’s strategy for sustainable change is to work in a spirit of partnership with all major stake holders in education system. We are not intended to establish a parallel educational system, but to build on and strengthen existing Government Institutions and expertise in the Government School System, thus creating a pool of resources to sustain and grow the quality movement beyond the project. We work with children, communities, Teachers, Administrators, Private enterprises and other members of civil society towards ensuring children enrollment and learning.

4. INFORMATION OF THE PROJECT :

We are working with rural communities, mostly engaged in subsistence agriculture in Vatticherukuru & Ponnuru Mandals of Guntur district in Andhra Pradesh. Majority of our beneficiaries are from poor families who cannot afford to send their children to schools mainly for 3 reasons.

1.Acute poverty which may not permit the family to purchase the required school gear and bear the incidental expenses.

2.Majority of the girl children are considered as a source of earning whether it is by working on the fields of others are taking care of their household work. For these families, sending their children to schools is considered as waste of time and money.

3.Majority of the children emerges from unlettered families and these first generation learners face the difficulty in learning and attending to their home work, thereby forcing them to drop out.

Though Ponnuru & vatticherukuru Revenue Mandals has adequate access to primary schools within a radius of 2-3 kms, the net enrollment ratio for girls stands at 67% and for boys at 92.8%. The gender gap in enrolment increases as we move from primary to secondary, where girls account for less than 45% of the total enrolment at the secondary level. Recent studies indicate a combination of factors ranging from limited access, teachers absenteeism to extreme levels of poverty that influences the child’s ability and desire to attend school.

5.PROJECT OBJECTIVES :

The objective of this program is to address the poverty, discrimination and learning deficits amongst the poor rural communities and help them in enrolling their children to schooling, by supporting them in terms of distribution of free School Gear and providing supplementary coaching to overcome learning deficits. Further, each child is provided routine health care and nutritious dietary supplements during their tenure in our facility.

As indicated earlier, we are not intended to run parallel schools to the Government but we are engaged in the following activities to improve the enrolment ratio and to reduce the drop-outs.

• Massive awareness drive involving the parents, teachers, community elders, PRI institutions and the children to educate them about the need of sending the children to schools.

• Distributing Free School Gear consisting of 1 set of Uniform, 1 set of shoes, 2 pairs of socks, 1 tie, one set of school text books, 1 set of note books, school bag, pen and pencil box, to poor children in order to motivate them into enrolling.

• In order to counter the learning deficits of the First generation Learners, we are undertaking supplementary coaching classes at various places within our operational area and helping the children with their home work. Currently 250 children studying in neighborhood schools in the grades KG – VII are deriving benefit of our program.

• Apart from providing help in their studies, we will also provide a glass of milk along with a boiled egg to each student in the morning.

• We also run periodical health check up camps for these children and monitor their growth. We will conduct Sunday school classes for their spiritual growth.

 

Apart from providing this sort of direct support, we maintain regular contacts with family and assuring them that we are with them till the child completes the schooling.

We are also engaged in addressing attitudes/ prejudices towards girl children, sensitizing teachers and community on gender disparities.
