Child Education

Every child, especially girls from low-income households, has access to and completes pre-primary through secondary school, thereby fulfilling their entitlement to a high-quality, inclusive education. The reality, however, shows that there is a lack of an inclusive, safe atmosphere in schools, discriminatory social norms, gender-stereotypical curricula, unequal access to early childhood education, and poor learning outcomes in the early grades, which cause learning deficiencies. Plan India has adopted a multifaceted strategy to address these obstacles and guarantee that all children, especially vulnerable girls from marginalized communities, achieve their right to an inclusive and high-quality education. This strategy includes:

• Boost financing for early childhood education and technical capacity.
• Enhanced capacity to serve educators and school administrators on-site Test out social innovations in curriculum and pedagogy that are sensitive to gender both inside and outside of the classroom.
• Boost technical abilities in encouraging and mobilizing girls (who have never enrolled, are sporadic enrollees, or have dropped out) to pursue an education.
• We are developing convergence models for SRH and child protection programs that take gender into account.
• Convince donors and governments to increase their funding for girls’ education.
