Education Awareness Programme

The message of education awareness was given to the villagers by taking out a rally by Shining Souls Trust in the development block Gunnaur district Panna, Madhya Pradesh on 7th of March 2020. The trust's social worker Brijbhan Patel told to the students of The Royal Public School that education is such a sun that casts its light on human beings and the rays emitted from it not only shine the family, society, country but the whole world. Education is a perfume inside man, which keeps on giving fragrance to the society with its fragrance, education builds good character of man, and brings full development. When a person attains higher education, then along with his family, he understands his responsibility towards society and country very well. Similarly, all the people present apprised the students about education, after which the students and school staff took out a rally in the whole village and gave the message of education to the residents of the village. On this occasion, Trust's social workers Brijbhan Patel, Rohit Gupta, Dr. Sarfaraz Farooqui, Prem Bahori Patel, Mithlesh Patel, Maharana Pratap, Raj Patel, Ravi Patel, Shivam Patel, Shivaji Rao Keshav, Bal Kishore Patel, Sheela Rajput Deepa Yadav, Varsha Yadav, Vandana Shingrol, including all the students of the school were present.

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world and the most effective way to break out of the cycle of poverty. Yet, after 70 years of Independence, over two crore children (NSS-2014) still remain out-of-school in India. These children are not only deprived of their right to receive an education but they lose their childhood to earn bread for a living.

Government through its Right to Education Act, 2009 have been making its way in enrolling and retaining children in school especially from the marginalized sector. According to the National Survey for Estimation of Out-of-School Children conducted in 2014, more than 60% of children dropped out before completing 3rd grade and according to the Institute for Policy Research Studies (PRS), nearly 50% of students dropped out by 11th grade. With the existence of such staggering numbers, the proper implementation of the Right to Education Act is yet to be made.

Awareness and Counselling

Through workshops and various activities, awareness is generated amongst parents and local communities about the importance of education. Shining Souls also conducts regular counselling sessions to encourage parents to send their children especially girls to school and help them participate in various activities.

Management Committees

Shining Souls forms school management committees comprising of teachers, students and parents to help them take accountability in children and school's development.

Skill-Development Workshops

Learning activities, sports and school committees help children in personality development and leadership. Shining Souls conducts multiple activities in schools that help them learn their rights, build skills and develop confidence.

Quality Education

To receive quality education other elements play a major role. Shining Souls helps in proper implementation of Right to Education Acts in schools across six poorest states in India, train teachers, strengthen school infrastructure, provide books and other learning materials to children and schools in need.
