    Introduction

    Isha Vidhya is a pioneering education initiative that seeks to transform the lives of India’s rural poor. It was established in 2006 (under the umbrella of Isha Education trust) towards building an India where high-quality school education is accessible and affordable to all, especially for rural underprivileged children.

    Isha Vidhya’s 10 rural schools (9 in the districts of Coimbatore, Erode, Salem, Dharmapuri, Cuddalore, Villupuram, Tuticorin, Nagercoil and Karur in Tamil Nadu and one in Chittoor District of Andhra Pradesh), serve over 8500 rural children, from kindergarten to 12th Standard. Over 60% of the students – most of whom are first-generation learners – are supported by scholarships. The rest pay a subsidized fee.

    How We Do it

    Unique Methodology for Rural Schools

    Isha Vidhya teachers receive extensive, on-going training to enhance their capabilities. At the same time, the scalable methodology is designed to reduce the students’ dependence on the teachers for learning. Key features of the methodology include:

    • Multi-sensory, activity-based learning, which stimulates learning on multiple levels
    • Interactive, discussion-based classes, promoting analytical and critical thinking skills
    • English-medium instruction, emphasizing language fluency at a young age
    • Extensive libraries in print, audio, video and computer materials, enhancing the learning process
    • Digital classrooms, bringing the world into the village school

    The Right Environment & Holistic Development

    Isha Vidhya students are given relevant exposure and equipped with essential skills for the 21st century, without losing sight of the traditional wisdom and diversity of India. The school infrastructure includes spacious, well-lit classrooms and clean toilets, rarities in a village setting. To ensure overall development, the schools provide:

    • Nutritionally balanced noon meals, fortified with essential vitamins
    • Medical health check-ups
    • Sports activities and daily yoga practice
    • Environmental awareness through “Little Green Hands”
