The Unsolved Problem

Around 6 in 10 students in Grade 5 can't read Grade 2 text, and 8 out of 10 cannot do simple math. Despite various education foundation programs, challenges persist in rural learning.

6 million children aged 6-14 are estimated to be out of school, and 36% drop out before completing primary education.
Rural government schools struggle with limited resources and poor infrastructure.
Challenges of multi-grade classrooms and low teacher-student ratios hinder learning.
Sporadic attendance and high non-teaching workloads impact learning outcomes.
Despite state efforts, primary education NGOs highlight declining learning levels.
