Deepika left school after Grade 9. Today, in her home in Assam, learning looks very different.
She is part of Pratham’s learning camps, Mothers’ Groups and Children’s Clubs, supporting her children’s education while also rebuilding her own confidence through adult learning and livelihoods programmes. She has completed a beautician’s course and now runs a small local service.
Her children are learning through Pratham’s foundational learning programmes, building strong reading, maths and school readiness so they can stay on track at school. Deepika has also grown into a leader mother, supporting other women in her community.
Because when learning starts at home, it doesn’t stop there.
Mothers returning to learning. Children gaining confidence. Families building new possibilities together.
