Pre-school Centres
The pre-school centres run by Bhartiya Jan Seva Ashram in Jaunpur district are a commendable effort in supporting early childhood education, especially for young children from Mushar families. The schools are located in six villages Bangaon Patti, Dugauli Kala and Mallupur villages of Badlapur block and Seed, Hatia Ramnath and Sarai Gaura villages of Maharajganj block.
Educational activities are conducted by engaging children in play and basic learning activities, such as sitting and identifying letters. The centres lay the groundwork for foundational education. These early learning experiences are crucial for cognitive and social development.
Supplementary nutrition is provided alongside educational activities. It is vital as proper nutrition supports physical and cognitive development, ensuring that children are healthy and able to engage effectively in learning activities.
These centres mainly target Mushar families, who are often marginalised. This helps in addressing educational and nutritional disparities of Mushars. It ensures that children from these communities receive early educational opportunities and support, which can have long-term benefits.
