Khushali Shiksha

The Foundation is changing the lives of many children by opening doors of opportunity for them. The focus is not just on age-and-grade-appropriate learning in curricular subjects such as language, science and mathematics. It is also on leveraging skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, collaborative learning and the use of technology to promote learning with its partner Pratham Education Foundation. In addition to the literacy program implemented in government schools, DCM Shriram Foundation undertakes various infrastructure development initiatives to improve the learning environment for school children.

In FY 2023-24, the Khushali Shiksha program underwent significant expansion, transitioning from its primary focus solely on foundational literacy and numeracy among primary school children to encompass early childhood education as well. This expansion involved the initiation of an intervention program in Anganwadis, aimed at enhancing infrastructure, capacity building of Anganwadi Workers, provision of Teaching-Learning Materials (TLM), and other essential components. Recognizing the critical need to improve children's school readiness and foster a culture of education within families from an early age, this expansion was deemed imperative.
