Details:
Lack of effective & quality education in the foundational stage (LKG-UKG) is the key reason behind major gaps in literacy-numeracy skills for many primary/middle school students in later years, eventually leading to demotivation and dropout from school. Pre-school age is a crucial period for brain development of a child and hence focus of education should be holistic
A well-defined and executed foundational stage education program (with specific focus on play & activity-based learning and phonics) can lay the strong foundation for English literacy, numeracy and many of twenty first century skills in later years
