Girls' return to school post Covid-19 in Rajasthan, India
A Research Study on Girls’ Re-Joining to Schools After COVID-19 Closure:
In the current context, it would be pertinent to measure the impact of intermittent absence of students due to the COVID restrictions on completely opening of schools, especially turn-out of girls (enrolment and actual) at secondary (9 to 12 classes) schools. The study of rural government schools along with capturing the first-hand account of the perceptions of the various key stakeholders (viz. students, parents, community leaders, education officials, etc) for girls not attending the schools will help us to understand the ground reality of girls’ reach-out and the factors influencing the same.
The objectives of the study are as follows:
1. To assess the dropout of the girls at secondary level after the re-opening of schools.
2. To understand the factors, help in promoting the girl’s secondary & higher education.
3. Exploring the workable alternative models of education for those girls who are not part of formal school system.
4. To draw the specific recommendations for the government to take relevant provisions in policies and programs.
