EDUCATION
Education is one of the most powerful things in life. It allows us to find the meaning behind everything and helps improve lives in a massive way. Irrespective of race, creed, and gender, education makes it possible for people to stand out as equal with all the other persons from different walks of life. Overall, education is the platform that makes it possible to defeat all barriers. Jyoty Marg gives opportunities to all those who are deprived of education and to others with better system to have best education. We have deferent programs in the ministry of education such as:
- Formal Education: The trust tries to establish an education system with all the possible facilities in CBSE, ICSE and State Board syllabuses.
- Non Formal Education: Here we reach out to the villages where the children are deprived of education due to different reasons. As many of the villages are deep in the forest and interior the transportation and communication system is so poor. So the education system does not work properly. Here the JM Trust starts non formal education for these children by appointing teachers for each village. They have the tuition for two three hours every day and prepare the drop outs and other children for annual exams in the government schools. At present we have 30 such non formal schools in Khandamal and Kolhandi districts with 750 beneficiaries.
- Education Scholarship: JM Scholarship for selected children from the non formal education centers were given for 2020 -2021 academic year. The best two to three students with poor financial back ground from each non formal education centers were selected for the scholarship and admitted in private and public schools in the cities with hostel facilities. There are 60 such students admitted in different schools with JM Education scholarship in deferent schools for next academic year.
