FAQs

PM’s MV program is an initiative to improve learning in primary school children in four govt primary schools in T.Narasipura Taluk in Mysore District. It is different to the extent that this model is based on the premise that education happens not merely in the classroom but from every experience of living in a community. Every agency associated with the child has a lesson to teach. The home, the play ground, the community and the school determine the quality of learning.

Though the process started during 2018, the program was interrupted due to the outbreak of the Covid pandemic. It was started again during April 2022 after the schools reopened.

The promise of a better education and a better future for their children is what drives the program. Witnessing the improved levels of learning, other villages too want to join the program.
