Teaching
While the school follows the State syllabus, the teaching methodology used is different from the methods employed in conventional schools. With a student-teacher ratio of less than 1:10, teachers can monitor the progress of each child. Besides providing an education, the school provides free bus transportation for kids who don't live within walking distance.
The school provides a lunch, which for many of the children is their only meal of the day. The school provides medical and dental checkups (including medicines) and Hepatitis-B vaccinations. Everything from books and schoolbags to uniforms and shoes is provided to students at no charge. The school gives two sets of uniforms to each child.
