Sugamya Shiksha

Sugamya Shiksha is a Comprehensive School Development model conceptualized and planned by GRAAM to make Government schools a model that enables a comprehensive learning environment. The thrust of the program is to have a holistic approach with new initiatives for strengthening the Government programs/activities of the schools. The program focuses on children coming from diversified cultural and socio-economic backgrounds and creates an environment to harness children's creative nature and help them gain knowledge from experience.  

GRAAM in collaboration with Aris Global in Mysuru is implementing Sugamya Shiksha to transform the way the student community is trained.
