1 SSA focus on Improvement in Quality of Elementary Education Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, a flagship programme of Government of India for the promotion of Universalisation of Elementary Education, has several features that seek to improve the quality of elementary education. The physical spaces of schools can be transformed into learning spaces only if certain basic provisioning is ensured. This provisioning includes, inter alia, an adequate number of teachers in schools, facilities for training of teachers, structures to provide regular on site academic support, grants to facilitate development of teaching learning material to aid classroom instruction, textbooks for children from special focus groups etc. 1. The programme places great emphasis on preparing the teachers for teaching, by building their capacity through a series of training programmes. The SSA provides for regular 20-day in service training for every teacher every year, along with facilities for 30 day training for newly recruited teachers and 60 day training for teachers that have not received pre service training. Training covers several pedagogical issues, including content and methodology, to improve teaching learning transactions at classroom level. States have started exploring several innovative means of imparting these trainings, including use of the distance, selflearning mode and use of the educational technology. Teacher training under SSA emphasizes child-centred pedagogy and competency based teaching learning. In , about 29.5 lakh teachers underwent the annual in service training.ncert has prepared guidelines for in service teacher training under SSA, called The Reflective Teacher that advocates an optimum training duration of about 10 days per year. In service training as suggested by NCERT, should be split up into institutional training training on site (that is, in the school), implementation of recommended strategies by the teachers in their own classroom settings and finally, meetings at BRC/CRC level to facilitate peer interaction amongst teachers. 2. Classroom transactions can be meaningful only with an optimum Pupil Teacher Ratio. Nearly 7 lakh teachers have been appointed under SSA so far. 3. Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan also provides for grants to schools and teachers for developing local context specific, teaching learning materials that have the potential to improve pedagogical processes in the classroom. Nearly lakh teachers have been provided with grants for developing TLM in The SSA also addresses other systemic issues of physical infrastructure and incentives in the form of free textbooks for all children belonging to the SC and ST categories and for all girls. Most first general learners belong to threes categories and benefit from this provisioning. Free textbooks have been distributed to core children in In the year , free textbooks were distributed to 6.39 crore children. Emphasis is being laid on timeliness of distribution of textbooks to eligible children. 5. Decentralized academic resources institutions in the form of about 6700 Block Resource Centres and about Cluster Resource Centres have been established across the country to help teachers performance by providing them professional support. The issue of capacity building of these institutions is being taken up with States on a regular basis and a national level research study is also expected to be commissioned shortly, to ascertain the efficacy of these structures for decentralized academic support. Further, the EC of SSA has issued certain clarifications that have facilitated the setting up of resource centers in urban
2 areas as well. NCERT has developed tools for monitoring quality under SSA that aim to sensitize States towards the need to focus the attention of BRCs and CRCs on academic support that includes in-class observation of classroom transactions, ensuring that SSA provisioning for quality (grants for schools and teachers, textbooks etc.) actually reach the schools, organizing need-based teacher trainings etc. 6. State, District and Block Level Resource Groups have been set up and participation of teachers in these groups is increasingly becoming evident. This has helped produce better textbooks, Teaching Learing Materials and training modules. State level academic resource groups have been set up in 24 States, for developing a vision and perspective regarding pedagogy, teachers training etc. and making classroom transactions more activity based. 7. Several States are undertaking successful quality improvement initiatives like the 3Rs Learning Guarantee Programme in Maharashtra that has enabled more than eight lakh children get remedial support for satisfactory learning, Language Improvement Programme in Andhra Pradesh, Integrated Learning Improvement Programme in West Bengal, new institutionalized mechanism for independent testing in Karnataka, etc. Learning outcomes in selected competencies in various subjects are assessed independently through Karnataka State School Quality Assessment Organisation. States have instituted systems for large scale independent assessment of pupil achievement levels and are using the result for systemic improvement like focused teachers training, developing remedial teaching programmes, etc. Several large-scale innovative inter-ventions have been initiated by State SSA programs (Annexure I). Such initiatives are being documented and are shared with other States/UTs to propagate similar innovative quality interventions across the country. Ministry has facilitated the documentation and dissemination of the following case studies, to facilitate cross state sharing of good practices under SSA: i) Quality Improvement Programme, Andhra Pradesh ii) 3 Rs Guarantee Programme, Maharashtra iii) Integrated Learning Improvement Programme, West Bengal. iv) School Performance Monitoring, Uttaranchal. v) Learning Achievement Tracking System, Orissa vi) Home based Education Practices for Children With Special Needs in SSA vii) NGO initiatives in inclusion: SSA experience viii) Shiksha Sangam Documentation of innovative interventions under SSA by IIM Ahmedabad Other than these, NCERT has also documented the following state initiatives for quality improvement: i) School Improvement Initiatives in Kolhapur, Maharashtra. ii) learning Guarantee Programme, Karnataka.
3 8. SSA also supports remedial teaching of children and nearly 34 lakh children were covered under this in The National Curriculum Framework (NCF) 2005, developed by NCERT, endeavours to reduce the curriculum load and make learning more enjoyable for children. NCERT has prepared a three-phased programme for the development of textbooks from till The NCERT textbooks have attempted to incorporate the concerns articulated in the NCF regarding gender sensitivity and a child centered, constructivist approach to learning. NCERT is assisting States in setting up core groups for reviewing their syllabi in the light of NCF, NCERT is providing technical resource support to the Core Groups set up by States/UTs through the involvement of resource persons who were associated in the formulation of NCF, 2005 and other related activities including syllabus and textbooks preparation. NCERT is also making available a sum of Rs.10 lakhs per State/UT in order to trigger off these processes. The NCF 2005has been shared with the States. 10. Several research studies under SSA are also underway to gather data and trends in teacher absenteeism, students attendance, time on task by students and teachers, professional competence and deployment of para teachers, etc. Periodic pupil achievement surveys by NCERT are also conducted. The NCERT studies reveal low achievement levels as follows: Classes Maths Language EVS Class III (SD 24.89) (SD 22.05) Class V (SD 21.30) (SD 18.30) (SD 20.67) Classes Maths Language Science Social Science Class VII (A) Class VIII (B) Note: (A) 10 States; (B) 17 States & 3 UTs The results of these studies are expected to be factored in by States, to address systemic issues in elementary education, for quality improvement under SSA. 11. Capacity building of states, to address quality issues in EE, is also a regular feature under SSA. Technical and academic support is available to States through NCERT and the technical support group for SSA. The NCERT has designed a sourcebook for pupil assessment and a set of in-service teacher training guidelines for SSA. NCERT has also undertaken documentation of good practices under SSA and periodic pupil achievement surveys. NCERT is also undertaking monitoring of quality aspects of SSA. TSG for SSA has facilitated workshops on multilingual education for States with substantial tribal population and on the teaching of Science and Mathematics. It has also promoted documentation and cross-state sharing of good practices under SSA. Besides, it has also promoted awareness and understanding of non-government efforts for quality education, like the reading campaign and ASER by Pratham, Learning Guarantee Program by Azim Premji Foundation, reading programme by KATHA etc. TSG has also facilitated the identification of teacher and trainer performance standards,
4 and an assessment of states teacher training modules to enable teachers to perform as per desired standards. ********************

Karnataka Innovative initiatives for independent pupil assessment and remedial support Assam runs innovative programmes like Bidyajyoti (operational in six districts), Learning Assurance Programme and Naba Padakshepa Schools that keep track of children's learning process in a systematic manner and extend remedial support to slow learners. Gujarat has undertaken a series (four till now) of studies on Learning Achievement of children in collaboration with Bhavnagar University (first 3 studies) and Saurashtra University (latest study) to construct the Gujarat Achievement Profile (GAP I, GAP II, GAP III and GAP IV). Other than identifying the slow learners and hard spots in learning, the State has been attempting to extend remedial support to teachers and learners on a continuous mode for enhancing quality of classroom transactions. Karnataka's Trimester system of learners' evaluation was introduced in 60,000 schools of the State with an aim to make learning more meaningful, remove fear psychosis about examination system, remove the habit of memory testing and also evaluate the child both in scholastic and non-scholastic areas in a child friendly manner. Children are tested thrice a year. Highlights of the programme include oral testing, project work, competency based testing, importance to life skills, grading mechanism, and remedial support to slow learners. Study undertaken on Trimester system has found better learning achievement and systemic appreciation towards the approach. Recently the State has designed Karnataka School Quality Assessment Organisation (KSQAO) for further improvement.
