Students these days live in a competitive climate where results are extremely important, and even the loss of a few points could result in a lot of missed dreams. These students are placed over 5000 schools throughout Tamil Nadu and unfortunately not all of these 5000-odd schools are created equal and all the students don’t compete on an equal footing. A lot of these schools either cater to people with high incomes who can afford to pay high fees or have unfortunately low quality of resources available to the students. This makes it difficult for students from middle-class backgrounds to compete with the students of the so called ‘elite ‘ schools . When we took over management of Shikshaa in 2005, we had a vision of making quality world class education accessible and affordable to everyone who needs it. Today I am happy to see our students having access to Smart classes for visualising complex concepts, the best use of internet, a sophisticated communication Lab, a Seminar Hall so on and so forth.
