  About government schools, Sikshanaand better learning outcomesRevisiting the bigger pictureThe fact is that 85% of children in India study in government schools. So any meaningful effort to improve the quality of education in our country obviously has to start here.Fortunately, it has: Central and state government initiatives have improved accessibility, facilities and teaching standards in public schools. However with a rapidly growing population of children of school-going age, it is apparent that a great deal more has to be achieved. But realistically, and with the best of intentions, the government can do only so much. Realising this, many state governments—of which the Karnataka government is a forerunner—have launched initiatives in which they partner with NGOs to nurture schools and enhance learning outcomes. How Sikshana helpsWe partner with state governments in this effort. The model for school-enhancement that we have created is born of trial and error, effort and experience. It is sustainable. And it can be replicated in government schools across different states. It is know-how that we would be delighted to share unconditionally with anyone working—individually or as an organisation—in a similar space.We began our efforts in a few schools in Karnataka. Today, we impact on 400 schools in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat. By 2012, we plan to extend our efforts to 1000 schools and their approximately 150,000 children. Show less
