Don't stop, until you are done...

By Jignesh Christi | Project Leader

Hello donors,

Regards from Gram Vikas Trust (GVT), Bharuch.

Today, it was time to share few success. Somehow the para teachers are making a huge difference in the villages. After the Diwali vacation in school, it was assumed that many children will not attend the school on first two weeks, as there are not teaching happen in these weeks, the school cleaning activity, and other administration work of the teacher force the teacher to remain busy in such activities. Also there is election ahead, and almost all the primary teachers are busy in the meeting and training of election.

“Don’t stop when you are tired, stop when you are done.”

Such issues has been faced from years, and during the para teacher meeting all the issues has been shared to them, which they have also faced in their villages. It was not planned by GVT but the para teacher has planned to do some activities during the vacation time to make them engage with the study. They planned to play with the children in the faliyas, different games, and visit of children parents to motivate them and to send their children to school regularly. They have also planned different cultural activities to perform during the first week of school, during the school assembly celebration, different sports activities after the mid-day-meal in school.

The best thing was few of the para teachers have thought to clean the school, as most of the students do not attend school as they have to clean the school. So few of the para teachers engaged some of the parents and other village youth and clean the school the day before school reopens. Also they spread the message to all the children.

The success is most of the children in project school have attended the school on first week, the government teachers shared that such attendance has been seen first time in their teaching career.

There are lot many problem which make the children away from school, but the para teachers are making difference to the children life. Let us join hands in making the difference.

A Success Story

By Jignesh Christi | Project Leader

As you all are aware about shortage of teachers in government Primary Schools, and so that the education does not reach to the children. In Bharuch district due to interior blocks many teachers are do not wish to select such schools for teaching. These villages are interior and with less economic and social supports. As many children affects from this lack of teachers in school, Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) is providing Para Teachers in 12 government primary schools which are very interior.

The children from Goladara (Name Changed) village has started smiling, the smile on their faces makes the school alive. Before few days back the children were avoiding to come to school as there are only two teachers, among them one Head Teacher who has loads of administration work and he could not able to give his time in teaching. The parents also did not ready to send their children to school as there was not teaching happening.

Ankitbhai (Name Changed) was appointed as Para Teacher in Goladara village, who has make the difference to make the school alive. There are 89 children in school, and among them only 20-30 children were regular the rest of the children roam around the villages or go with their parents at work places. Ankitbhai has started contacting children and parents, small faliya (hamlets) meeting to make the parents realize the importance of education, the government teacher and Ankitbhai has divided classes and started different activities with the children with teaching, in the earlier days the children were not coming to school but after they saw so much activities the other children also started coming to school.

Now the children are regular in school with the happy faces.
