EduChamp – The Social School
EduChamp by AAS Vidyalaya – Anytime Anywhere School is the power in the hand of every child to unlock their potential through holistic learning and guidance. AAS (which means hope in Hindi), aimed at being India’s first virtual school, is solving the problem of availability and accessibility of good quality education by bringing the school to the children instead of children to the school.
What are we trying to solve?
Out of 27.4 crore of the country’s student population:
- 8.4 crore Indian children don’t attend school at all
- School drop-out rate largely contributed by secondary schooling is 35%
- Attendance in secondary school is only 52%
