Right to School

The CRY 'Right to School' campaign is all about transforming schools into learning environments. With aim of ensuring that 271,341 children across CRY-supported projects not only go to school but also complete their education the campaign idea was conceived.

With donation received from you, CRY is set out work closer with our implementing partners at the grass-roots level across India to address the factors that come in the way of children not being able to access their right to education. We are workong on solutions together with the communities. The approach on the ground includes:

• Access to equitable and quality preschool, primary and secondary education in our intervention areas
• Mobilising and empowering parents and communities to act towards children's right to education
• Transition of children from pre-school to primary education
• Making stakeholders understand the importance of education
• Ensuring that in intervention areas, schools are compliant with the Right to Education Act and have functioning School Monitoring Committees
• Awareness amongst parents on the importance of education and the consequences of child marriage
• Access to secondary schools and developing readiness for secondary education
• Protection and security of girls within the community, their safe access to schools, and retention in schools
• Lobby for schools where they are not available and advocate for better monitoring of schools at various levels
• At the POLICY ADVOCACY level, CRY works with local and national government bodies
