Challenge

State run schools are plagued with serious issues like teacher absenteeism, poor student teacher ratios, text books beyond the children's comprehension, pressure on teachers to complete the syllabus which tends to leave many children behind as most classrooms have multi-grade children and most importantly, a style of teaching in which the teachers aren't motivated and the learners are not engaged. To reap the benefits of demographics, the masses must comprehend information and use technologies.

Solution

We work as a partner to the state and use the infrastructure of govt schools. OBLF has adopted 100 schools in which we assess children in the start of a school year, divide them into groups based on how they do, teach via fun-filled methods and technologies like tablets to enhance the learning of state syllabus. Year end assessments have constantly shown that the kids in the program are way ahead of the ones who are not part of the program.

Long-Term Impact

OBLF aims to develop a scalable model by adopting most schools in a Block in Bangalore, with plans to expand nationwide as resources allow. Our program not only improves education for children but also empowers rural women by employing them as Coordinators, providing financial and intellectual independence. This dual-impact approach benefits both students and women, driving sustainable development in underserved communities, with the goal of creating lasting change across India.
