Literacy Challenges in Rural Bihar
Poverty and Financial Burden: Families struggle with the cost of education, including fees, books, and uniforms, forcing many children to prioritize earning over learning.
Lack of Quality Schools: Limited access to well-equipped schools leaves children in poorly resourced environments with minimal learning opportunities.
Teacher Shortages: Qualified educators prefer urban opportunities, leaving rural schools understaffed or dependent on undertrained teachers.
Dual Responsibilities: Many students balance education with family income needs, leading to inconsistent attendance and eventual disengagement.
Infrastructure Deficiencies: Schools often lack basic facilities, such as classrooms, libraries, and study materials, further hindering learning.
Unrealized Parental Aspirations: Parents dream of brighter futures for their children but lack the means to overcome systemic barriers.
