Deep Griha Academy
Deep Griha's English-medium rural school was inaugurated in 2006. The Lower Kindergarten and Upper Kindergarten classes are already running, and this year standard I was started. Each year, an additional school year will be added.
The school is open to all children from the rural community. A fee is charged, which will make the school self-sustainable. A proportion of admissions will be reserved for bursary students, so that financial circumstances do not provide a barrier to entry.
The specially designed agri-based curriculum aims to sensitise students to their environment, encourage an appreciation of the significance of agriculture and foster in them responsibility towards their community.
This curriculum utilises project-based 'learning by doing' methodologies to help facilitate creative and practical thinking in students in order for them to meet the challenges of modern rural India.
DGA aims to be a fully inclusive school. The school buildings have been designed to be fully accessible to people with disabilities and the curriculum will ensure that those students with special educational needs can be educated in the mainstream classroom as far as possible, together with relevant teacher training.
