Chhori Padhau Abhiyan

Chhori Padhau Abhiyan Ongoing Programme · छोरी पढाऊ अभियान

Keeping 2,400 girls in school to Class 12 with scholarships, bicycles and evening classes.

In the 18 schools we surveyed in 2080, 34% of girls who finished Class 8 did not reach Class 10. For boys the figure was 12%.

Chhori Padhau Abhiyan works on the reasons families gave us: cost, distance, housework and early marriage. School management committees select scholarship recipients, girls who live far away receive bicycles and travel together, and teachers run evening classes in the months before exams. Parents meet every month to review attendance.

Objectives

  • Keep 2,400 girls enrolled through Class 12
  • Provide 900 bicycles for girls living more than 3 km from school
  • Raise SEE pass rates for girls in partner schools by 20 points
  • Build girl-friendly toilets in all 18 partner schools
