4.2.1 New Schools
Primary and Upper Primary school access has already been
ensured for all eligible habitations as per Government norms. However,
new habitations have been formed which become eligible for provision of
school facilities. 105 such habitations have been identified which need to
be provided new Primary schools. Moreover, to bring down the primary
upper primary school ratio to near 1:2, nearly 831 habitations have been
identified for upgrading primary schools into middle schools. If the
proposal of these schools is approved, the ratio of primary to upper
primary school will be reduced from 2.48:1 to 2.36:1. The number of new
primary schools to be opened and upgradation of primary into upper
primary, and the number of teacher posts required are furnished in the

Considering the significance of the problem of enrolling Out-of-
school children, different strategies like Non-Residential Bridge Course,
Residential camps and special residential camps for mentally retarded
children have been planned to cover drop out children and never enrolled
children including street children, urban deprived children, migrant
children, tribal children and nomadic children.
360
The State plans to organize non-residential bridge courses,
residential bridge courses, special residential camps for mentally
retarded children and summer camps for enrolling Out of School
children during 2009-10.
At Upper Primary level those who are fresh drop outs and those
who have dropped out recently around 14,495 will be covered through
Summer Camps conducted for a period of three months (May, June and
July).
Non Residential Bridge courses for drop out children and Never
Enrolled children will be conducted for a period of 10-12 months to cover
28,360 Out-of-school children. Mostly these centres are run in the
premises of formal school under the supervision of school Headmasters.
Strategies to be followed:
Monthly Review Meeting of District AIE Coordinators paves way for
achieving target.
NGOs / SHGs are involved in conduct of RBCs to cover OoSC
Children.
At primary level Activity Based Learning Methodology will be
effectively used to promote the learning outcomes in all AIE
programmes.
ALM Methodology is adopted for classroom transactions in VI – VIII
Std.
All support materials will be provided to the children as per
break-up of expenditure.
The performance of EVs appointed is assessed and there is a need
to upgrade their qualification.
Trained graduates or retired teachers may also be posted as EVs
for AIE centres during 2009-2010.
361
Apart from academic input work experience will also be provided in
these centres.
As NRBCs are conducted in the regular premises itself, there is an
ample chance for OOSC to utilize the available infrastructure
facilities and quality oriented academic support materials for
improving learning level and easy mainstreaming process.
Apart from all the above interventions, the State plans to introduce a
few new strategies that are as follows:
362
Owing to continued intervention under OOSC component using
many strategies, the number of out-of-school children has come down
from 574069 to 68686. The remaining children are difficult to reach.
Children of beggars, Nomadic Children, Narikoravas, Street Children,
Children without parental care, Domestic Child Labourers, Urban
deprived children and Migrant Children are not at all motivated towards
education. It is really a challenging task to identify, enroll, retain and
mainstream these children. With strong determining activities are in
progress to reduce drop out rate at zero level.

Coverage of Disabled Children
367
The implementation of SSA has created greater awareness among
the community about the importance of education. During the last seven
years, there has been a steady increase in the identification and
enrolment of disabled children in formal schools. The initial reluctance
on the part of parents has given way to willing co-operation in coming
forward to admit their children in schools. The academic achievement
level among the disabled children has also improved. 71,140 children will
be enrolled in school, 12,180 children will be taken care of through day
care centres are in school, 11,540 children will be covered through AIE
interventions and 23,290 will be covered under Home Based Care.

4.3 National Programme for Education of Girls at Elementary Level
(NPEGEL)
Block-specific strategies
The Block specific action plan for 37 EBBs in 11 Districts is
prepared as per revised norms under recurring grant for cluster level
interventions @ Rs.60,000/- per MCS an amount of Rs.562.200 lakh is
proposed for 37 block specific action plan. Achieving 100% NER among
girls and retaining them without any dropout is the major objective of
NPEGEL activities in EBBs. In addition, improving their achievement
level is also another concern. Hence, specific strategies have to be
adopted to make the system more attractive to girls which motivate
them to retain in the system and complete their elementary education
Moreover the parents would be satisfied that their children educated in
such a way that they may be independent to lead their life. As a
measure work experience to girls by way of vocation activities has
introduced where dropout rate is significantly high. Based on this
concept vocational training is planned in some blocks. Not only to attract
girls to school but also to make a positive impact on the academic
learning outcomes of children computer aided learning and computer
literacy is planned for some blocks. To make learning mathematics as
an interesting task innovative Maths training is planned in
Mallasamudram Block of Namakkal District. An abstract action plan for
the Educationally Backward Blocks is given below.
