The program will cover four villages Sesa Panbari, Dhekidol, Chapaguri and Hasara Nepali Basti in Tezpur sub division .
Dabur India Ltd Head-CSR A. Sudhakar said that ,after undertaking development programmes for revamping the school infrastructure in Tezpur, we are now lending a helping hand to the students in their studies. During our community meetings, we realised that some children were poor performers in schools because of the low literacy levels of their parents, impacting their self-confidence. We have started this Remedial Education Centre to support such weak students by offering them special tuition classes. This centre will seek to enhance their ability to comprehend things being taught in school, besides improving their confidence and their grades,” .
Inaugurating the centre, Champa Basumatary said, “Both parents and teachers play an important role in the growth and development of a child. They need to understand the specific needs of each child and take corrective measures, wherever required. I am sure Jivanti Remedial Centre will play a strategic role in the overall learning process of students who can’t afford private tuition due to their poor financial situation. With remedial classes, students will be able to overcome the barriers and indulge in activity-oriented collaborative learning.”
