- Urgency in universalising access to primary schooling.
- Sensitivity to the habitation pattern of tribal communities M.P.
.
- Community participation.
- Central Role to Gram Panchayats in Primary Education .
- Organic linkage between teacher and community possibility of restoration
of community-atreach role of teacher.
- Ability to address ills of teacher observations and accountability
to community.
- Academic Process : teacher training, teaching learning materials,
transactional process, learners response.
- School effectiveness in campaign with the formal primary school.
- Cost effectiveness.
- Contribution to creation of Rights-based discourse on primary education.
- Trigger to institutional Reforms in the primary education sector.
It focuses on the districts of Shahdol and Guna. The study summarises
that these schools "function effectively in general and have contributed
positively in providing access to the disadvantaged and marginalised
groups. The quality aspects, as reflected in terms of transaction process
and children's learning leafless, are satisfactory. These initiatives
have also given a new meaning to decentralization and community involvement
by rising above the tokenism and transferring the initiatives in their
hands".
"…If nurtured properly, this can play a vital role in changing the
face of primary education sector radically in the context of Madhya
Pradesh".
