School Level (on
Dayapuram Campus) |
|
 |
-
Students are
admitted into a class of 15 (There will be two/four classes
of such kind in the coming academic year depending on the
availability of funds, as was decided by the last trust
meeting and about half of this 30 will be orphans). The
class to which admission is given still needs to be
finalised in consultation with the experts.
-
They will be trained in Basic English conversations for two
months, using videos and programmes. Whatever they studied
in Malayalam in the third standard will be recapitulated in
English. This phase is exclusively for learning basic
sentence structures and elementary vocabulary. They are
taught some computer and showed videos so that they enjoy
this new English.
-
By August, they start learning the 4 th standard texts in
English. It is just that other than nouns, other connectives
will be in Malayalam. The syllabus goes the routine way.
-
In December, these kids are sent to spend time with some non
Malayali researchers who would converse with them only in
English.
-
As there
are gaps in the classes, Saturday will be a working day
for them and the classes might not end in the stipulated
time of the school.
-
The next
year they will be put in a class together but will have
routine classes.
-
The year
after rhat onward, they will be merged with the others
and stop staying as a separate body (by which time they
would already be good enough to be with other English
medium schools).

School Level (in other parts of the country)*
* This part of the project needs a thorough study in terms of
availability of suitable educational institutions and faculty,
financial resources, volunteers for help etc, which are only at the
stage of planning now. Still, in order not to make potential
candidates miss the benefits and willing volunteers not to lose a
platform and mechanism for work, this option is kept open.
Beneficiaries of students may write in to director@edoptiondayapuram.org
for the time being. Students will be updated as we go along.

Higher Education Level (On Dayapuram Campus)
On campus, undergraduate girl students are given admission, with
all their educational expenses borne by the EDoption scheme.
Rigorous and continuous orientation programmes will be conducted so
that the poor rural girls are able to plan and work towards a solid
career ahead. |

Higher Education Level (In Other Parts of the Country)
Competent though poor students are identified
through reliable references initially and they will
be contacted to see what kind of support they need.
For example, a poor student who did extremely well
in his/her tenth/matriculation needs to be given
proper training either for professional courses or
for research programmes so that s/he could get
admission to one of the premier institutions. We are
in the process of establishing an office that will
give consultation and guidance alongside
facilitating application process and other needs for
students from weak backgrounds and minimal exposure.
The project also arranges finance for poor students
who make it to noted institutions. This project
works on need basis and allows a great deal of
flexibility. We always explore how best
support can be extended and design projects
accordingly, wit individual care. EDoption seeks to
become an asylum and a power house who are made to
wait hesitantly and thus enable them… |
