The schools presently have 5820 children, with approximately 3080 (58%) students on free education supported by donations under a scholarship program, while the rest pay a nominal fee.
2014-15 marks a very important milestone for Isha Vidhya schools as the first batch of students will be appearing for Class X examination. The current year is also very critical as the schools need to complete 47 more class rooms and Science Labs for Class XI and XII. This will enable the children continue their studies without compromising on the quality.
In addition to the above, approx 700 new children get admitted every year who require scholarships over and above the existing children.
Based on the experience gained and the success in the Isha Vidhya schools, Isha Vidhya began to carry out critical interventions to improve the quality of education in rural Government schools. Currently 40 Government schools have been adopted under the Government School Adoption Program.
I welcome the kind hearts like you to experience the soulful pleasure and satisfaction in acting as a small step to touch the lives of few tiny tots who are otherwise deprived of the basic necessities in life
