Model School in Sundarban

The villages of Sundarban are situated in very remote areas. There is no good school in most of the areas. Most of the inhabitants are illiterate and less-conscious about the education. Therefore, the students face the problem that a first generation learner faces. Most of the times, the children are engaged into household chores or income generation activities. In addition, the teaching quality of the government schools is not up to the mark and teachers are engaged in different types of work other than studies. As a result, they do not have much time in hand to teach. The students are neglected since not getting quality education.
