Project Topi - Education

Education

The Society aims at increasing the literacy rate of the community and improving the standard and effectiveness of its educational institutions, and so, works:

  1. To help students with learning difficulties pursue their education by providing them with free tuition.
  2. To help deserving students pursue their education by providing them with financial aid and scholarships.
  3. To identify talented students in near bye schools and encourage them through various award ceremonies and helps them build confidence by making them compete with the best students in the country.
  4. To maintain the infrastructureof educational and civic institutes in needy areas.

The Executive Committee defines a deserving student as one who is unable to study because of:

  1. Lack of teacher(s).
  2. Medical reasons.
  3. Financial reasons.

Or any other difficulty or hindrance that is considered just by the Executive Committee.

Famous quotes containing the word education:

    As long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs can only be reached through exams, so long must we take this examination system seriously. If another ladder to employment was contrived, much so-called education would disappear, and no one would be a penny the stupider.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    There are words in that letter to his wife, respecting the education of his daughters, which deserve to be framed and hung over every mantelpiece in the land. Compare this earnest wisdom with that of Poor Richard.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    In the years of the Roman Republic, before the Christian era, Roman education was meant to produce those character traits that would make the ideal family man. Children were taught primarily to be good to their families. To revere gods, one’s parents, and the laws of the state were the primary lessons for Roman boys. Cicero described the goal of their child rearing as “self- control, combined with dutiful affection to parents, and kindliness to kindred.”
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)
