Right To Education Section 12 (1) c campaign

From March to June 2024, facilitating admission to children from disadvantaged and economically weaker sections in private unaided schools under the RTE Act was undertaken in partnership with 15 community anchors in 15 districts across Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar.

The campaign, led by 35 Equity & Inclusion (E & In) champions, focused on facilitating parents in admissions, supporting them with documentation, and providing crucial support for their educational success. This included addressing challenges such as transportation, access to educational materials, and social barriers.

A key aspect of the campaign was community engagement, involving parents, educators, and local leaders to build a supportive network for students. During the campaign, the champions held 100 meetings across 14 districts, resulting in 128 children applying for admission, with 50 successfully admitted to private schools.
