“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world,” Nelson Mandela
India is the biggest democratic country in the world with more than 1.4 billion people. India gained Independence over 75 years ago. Since its independence, many things have changed in India but not Dalit’s and poor people lives who comprise the majority of the Indian population.
Dalits, backward castes and poor want their children to be educated in English-language schools, recognizing that the greatest opportunities in Indian society and around the world are offered to those Indians that have been educated in English. But due to poverty, they are not able to send their children to high paid expensive schools where they learn English.
In most cases there are no quality English medium schools in the rural areas for rural poor children. So there is no opportunity for poor children to be educated in English medium schools.
Poor people’s lives will not be changed unless they are educated. A quality English medium education will change their lives forever.
Empowering Future Leaders through Education
Children are the future of a nation. For an emerging and developing country like India, development of Dalit underprivileged and poor children holds the key to the progress of the nation itself.
To address the need, in 2012 June we have established a school called LIGHT English Medium High School.
At LIGHT English Medium High School, we believe that every child, regardless of their background, deserves access to quality education. Our English medium school is dedicated to providing poor children with the tools, knowledge, and opportunities they need to build a brighter future.
Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty, and we are committed to unlocking that potential in every student we serve.
In our school, children are taught the values of freedom, equality and human dignity, along with the skills needed to become financially independent.
We are hoping to build children ready to face tomorrow’s challenges, while being proud citizens involved in the county’s decision making. We want to see children participating in the development of this country and world if possible.
Our school is open for all irrespective of caste, creed or religion. We have 275 children in the school, from lower kindergarten to year ten. The medium of education is English.
Without education, hope and opportunity will bypass yet another generation.
