Quality life through quality education

    Description
    Description
    Quality life through quality education, curriculum and age appropriate community projects to be worked on by children inside which they will learn about what happens in real life, how to deal with challenges, enterprising and life skilled human being, if there is a person drowning how will you gain courage to save him. We plan to have alternate school models to be able to deliver and achieve this work. We have passionate team of people who will spread this as a web to bring in peace and quality living in community & prepare children for life.
    Expected Impact

    We will be Establishing alternate schools in gurgaon, udaipur, ahmedabad, near by rural and urban areas of 500-1000 sq feet area or domes in open ground and government schools.<br />
    <br />
    With 5 facilitators in each staff with their rigorous training to them on the philosophy and pedagogy to impact quality education.<br />
    <br />
    every month awareness campaign through theatre and workshops will be delivered for parents, teachers and children.<br />
    <br />

    Cleanliness and hygiene, employment to women, Resource management, literacy and education in each home 3 years to 60 years,<br />

    Capacity

    we need to develop GuruSkuls in 1 acre land, need furniture, rooms, sports and academies rooms etc.<br />
    GuruSkul, is a project on "Back to the roots". In this era where the illusion on how the future looks like, we forget the ultimate truth. Conversation on King Yudhishthira with Yaksh, says much about the certainty, that the one who is born, must die. That is the ultimate truth.<br />
    This aint any spiritual organisation but that’s the source of whatever we do. GuruSkul is a future school that has a philosophy exactly like that of a tree. Connected from the roots, stays strong, grows, expands and ultimately there are fruits. A blend of technology, current trends, 21 century Education and values. <br />
    GuruSkul is an alternate school that welcomes all the children for comprehensive schooling from age 5-15 years. Mothers and children (birth-4 years). Parents, teachers and school leaders across globe to be part of this movement of Value Based Education with blends.

    Governed

    We will see the projects undertaken by children and its outcome (tangible) based on it we will evaluate the impact of the work. So if kids took cleanliness in slum area as a project and has 6 members in group, we will go see the work on the court. We will use social media to bring in more people participate and get inspired from the movement.<br />
    We will have feedback forms and testimonials on the learning outcomes, interviews of beneficiary groups and how it helped them, also a process to get back and see how this has worked.<br />
    <br />
    From age 9 months to 16 years and adults we will give projects that bring changes in the society tangibly and intangibly.
