Details about the Teachers
For the migrant workers children we have been running the school
in 6 villages during the academic year 2007-08.
To teach the subjects in their native language, RDT appointed 13
Teachers form Andhra Pradesh, 3 Teachersfrom
Tamil Nadu and one teacher form Orissa. Among the 17 teachers 12
are male and 5 are female. Out of 17, Seven
teachers are graduates and having good teaching experience and
the other 10 are undergraduates with good
teaching experience. All the teachers are staying in the
villages nearby the schools. To increase the teaching
capacity, RDT has conducted ABL training, Arts and Crafts
training and other need based trainings to
the teachers to handle the subjects properly.
Syllabus Covered for Three Months
All the Telugu schools are following the same time schedule for
teaching the subjects and cover the lessons that
are prescribed for the quarterly examination. And also the
teachers conduct revision of lessons for the preparation
of quarterly examination. Students are learning the subjects in
Telugu and Odiya language with support of the
experienced teachers. The Day Care Children are improving their
learning capacity through play way method with
toys.
Distribution of School Uniforms and Bags
During the staff meeting on 17.01.07 in the staff
meeting, the teachers of Egattur, Chemmanchery, Vaianchavadi and Kelambakkam schools were raised a point that the students and the
parents are requested us to provide
uniforms and school bags. It was discussed and decided in the staff
meeting to provide the uniforms and school
bags to these schools.
Based on the decision on 27.12.07, we have
distributed Uniforms to 150 Students and
school bags to 50 students in Egattur Cemmancherry, Vaniyanchavadi and
Kalambakkam schools. Totally 200
Boys and Girls were benefited.Due to this, the student’s attendance
considerably reduced on these two
days.we have distributed Uniforms to 150 Students and school
bags to 50 students in all RDT Trust Egattur Cemmancherry, Vaniyanchavadi and
Kalambakkam schools.
Van Service
To bring the children from the construction places to the
school, it was proposed to rent a van to help the children
to attend the school safely. During the academic year 2006-07, RDT hired a van and increased the school
strength. To continue this service and motivate the children to
attend the school regularly, we are hiring a van and
use it to bring the children and to drop them safely in their
home. To reduce the dropouts and to give education
for
all bear the expenditure and come forward to extend the van
service to this academic year also.
Through the
van
service, children from Kumaran Nagar, Thazlambur,
Kazhipattur, Solinganallore, Siruseri,
Padur,Sathankuppam,
SIPCOT etc are getting benefit. On an average 200
children between the age group of 6 to
14years are getting
benefits especially the girl children are
using the van to come to the school. The parents send
their children to the
school without hesitation.
Noon Meals
The Telugu children are malnourished and they and very weak in
health condition due to migration and poverty. All
the Tamil Schools are providing noon meal to the children who
are attending the school. But our Telugu Children
are not getting this benefit. To reduce this problem and provide
balanced diet to all the Telugu school going
children the nutritious noon meals are provided from Day Care
Centre to 8th standard. To provide this meal,
weekly
menu was planned and prepare the food according the menu. We use
fresh vegetables, greens and dhal
for the
preparation of the food. In addition to this the children who
are in the Day Care Centre getting biscuits,
fruits and
milk as supplementary nutrition. Through this service all the
children are getting good noon meals and
motivation
to attend the school regularly. All the Telugu children express
their sincere thanks to ASHA Seattle-
SA for this
noble help.
