Jigani School Presentation Visit: July 23 2005Presented By: Subramanian Ramamurthy
Highlights • Village school • Services elementary & secondary school needs of Jigani and several surrounding villages • Several very dedicated teachers and staff • Although they receive some limited government support, they have financial difficulties of two kinds • Lack funds for facilities and infrastructure • Lack funds for teacher’s salaries • Can we help them? They have some requests. In addition, I have some ideas, and would like to initiate a discussion on this topic.
History of the School 1961: School began in temple/fields, etc. 1973: Building constructed by the land army : Ishwar Murthy took over as Headmaster 1994: High school begins
Basic Statistics • Elementary, middle and high school • Only school with 8-12 grades in the area (people come here from government school) • Total of 1300 students (470 in elementary school, 745 in high school, 162 in PUC) • ~30 rooms, situated in a 2 acre plot • Students pay Rs. 500 p.a. (and Rs. 500 towards school expenses)
Problems • Infrastructure • Not able to accept all students (from surrounding villages) due to lack of space • Teachers go on regular quarterly rounds to get funds for expansion & maintenance • Monthly expenses – cash flow • Teacher’s salaries are often difficult to come up with • Often need the support of external donors to cover this
Cost Estimate for New Classrooms • Proposing the construction of 4 new classrooms • Use existing land, 0.25 acres • 1 classroom costs Rs. 2,90,000 ($6682) • Total estimated expenses are Rs. 11,60,000 ($26,728)
Problem with Teacher’s Salaries • Salaries are quite low • M.A., B.Ed. teacher gets Rs. 1500 p.m. • Principal gets Rs. 3300 p.m., after 9 yrs experience • Govt. supports 8 teachers (@Rs. 6000 p.m.) • Paying the remaining teachers is often challenging • Often need to ask local donors for funds • Also, lack of funds makes it difficult to recruit new teachers
What could we do to help teachers? • SAC type program for teachers salaries? • One time fund to help teachers for a fixed period of time? • Provide seed money for a teachers “fund” – e.g., matching funds provide them incentive when they go fund raising locally
Some high-level points (some motivation to provide help…) • Jigani village has a poor “economy” • They are located near an industrial estate but there are several socio-economic problems • Uneducated, often unemployed, population • Leads to a lot of friction between businesses and villagers • Businesses wary of helping the villagers due to a few bad incidents • Education can help solve some of these problems by providing a capable next generation
