Active participation of Gram Panchayats, Urban Local Bodies, School Management Committees, Self-Help Groups, Anganwadi workers, ASHA workers, voluntary organisations and public representatives will be ensured so that schools can reach every eligible child.
Focus On Dropout Students
Following comprehensive education reforms in the state such as the NIPUN Bharat Mission, Vidyalaya Kayakalp, Balvatika, teacher capacity enhancement and learning quality improvement, the second phase of the School Chalo Abhiyan will provide fresh momentum to these efforts.
With a financial limit of Rs 163.60 lakh, this state-wide campaign is being regarded as an important initiative towards achieving the universal goal of education and ensuring that no child remains deprived of schooling.
During the campaign, out-of-school children will be identified through door-to-door outreach, surveys at the village and ward levels and local records. Such children will be enrolled on a priority basis, and continuous interaction with their parents will be maintained to ensure their regular attendance.
