‘Can we transform a million Indian government schools in our lifetime?’
Aditya Natraj, CEO, Piramal School of Leadership, and the founder and director of
Kaivalya Education Foundation (KEF), is the son of our IWA member, Sushila Natraj.
Aditya says,”In
the last twenty years India has expanded quantitatively and built the
largest education system in the world with 1.5 million schools and 8
million teachers. But quality is a huge problem. Fifty percent of fifth
graders cannot read a paragraph in their mother tongue. OECD
ranked us 83 out of 84 countries that took the test. Can anything be
done?”
KEF is a change
management organisation that focuses on transforming the
quality of
education in public schools.Kaivalya
Education Foundation aims to create a generation of school leaders who are
empowered with the skills to create a large-scale,systemic impact.Join us as
Aditya takes the discussion forward and tells us how he found meaning in
life in India’s villages.
