List of Projects on which we are working at SARKARISCHOOL.IN
Project Kahaanikosh
Kahaanikosh is a digital repository of stories uploaded as text, audio or video format for supplementing learning beyond the classroom teaching in government schools. Our aim is to reinstate the old tradition of oral storytelling. Currently we are working on creating a network of government school teachers, while ensuring feedback based communication between teams and schools to assess the effectiveness of lesson plans and working on diversification. Through this initiative of ours we wish to engender an environment that facilitates learning without any fear of judgement and equip teachers with skills needed for teaching 21st century children.
Project Mythbuster
Project Myth Buster aims at demystifying misconceptions attached to and within the ecology of government school education through factual data and constructive dialogue in order to create a healthy perspective both for the educators and larger public.The project works on unearthing the truth with the help of research documents and videos created in both Hindi and English to reach a diverse set of population. We work to act as the facilitators of a constructive dialogue among public by disseminating authentic and credible information about government schools and their educators.
Project Vedana
Every year, about 23 million girls have to drop out of school because of menstruation. To tackle these staggering numbers, Project Vedana aims towards creating awareness campaigns to reduce school absenteeism/dropouts in girls after menstruation in rural areas through active involvement of youth and creating conversation around normalizing the taboos and stereotypes around periods. We make active use of social media platforms to organise interviews, slogan writing competitions and open mic competitions around this topic to encourage more public participation.

The project introduces them to various skills like motor skills, language skills, social skills, decision making skills, risk taking and inventiveness to further develop their cognitive aptitude. We wish to align this project with the vision of NEP 2020, to include local and other art forms in school and higher education curriculum and lead the learners to become a part of Self-reliant India/ AtmaNirbhar Bharat by encouraging local artisans to come forward and teach the students their form of art and craft, thus making classrooms a platform for “Vocal for Local” campaign too.
