Save the Children work is underpinned by a commitment to making children rights a reality To address this challenge, Save the children has adopted the strategy of facilitating the creation of ‘Inclusive Learner Friendly Environments’ targeted at 3-18 years within diverse educational settings to meet the challenge of addressing diverse and heterogeneous needs of children.

We work towards developing inclusive and equitable education policies and practices, thereby ensuring a quality education for all children, regardless of their gender, class, caste, ethnicity and religion. Other aspects of our work include a focus on Early Childhood Development, the promotion of child-centered approaches, training teachers and helping communities to develop close linkages with schools

The focus of our approach is based on a three pronged strategy involving intervention in three domains of the education system

• Organization of Schools
• Instructional Dimension
• Community Involvement

We plan to develop 'model inclusive schools' across the India. This will be implemented through developing a core group of master trainers consisting of education personnel. We will work with selected schools/Institution and pre-primary classes over the next five years to intervene in all the three dimensions to make them model Inclusive Learner friendly Schools.
