We all recognize, understand and feel that there are many challenges that keep kids away from getting educated – including long distances, poor or no infrastructure at schools, lack of transportation facilities and busy schedules of parents for daily survival. There are also many children whose wandering lifestyles do not allow them to participate in formal schooling.
India is a nation of villages, with 6,38,000 villages that have many millions of children who do not have the privilege of even the first basics of education. How many schools can realistically be built for these villages? It is a firm belief of Education on Wheels that it is much more realistic to bring schools to the villages. YES, we can take schools, and education, to every one of those villages. It's now time to take schools-to-the-students.....where it is truly needed.
How will this work?
We equip vehicle with important and innovative education tools and toys. Travels on fixed routes on schedule-cycles, accompanied by well-trained & dedicated teachers-staff. On our journey, each Mobile School stop at planned villages-stations and run a school program for 3 hours. During that time, the Mobile School alternatively opened for some students to work with teachers to learn academics while others enjoy playing with toys on the village-grounds. In this project Every village will be visited in pre-determined minimum 7 day cycles. GPF is planning to focus initially on pre-school education, which is at the very base of creating awareness & interest towards a lifetime of education.
