Abstract

From Introduction: Providing quality education for all the children in the age group of 6 to 14 years continues to be a challenging one. There is a remarkable expansion of access of schooling in almost all the habitation in Tamilnadu including Thoothukudi District. Inspite of this, out of school children is great concern in Tamilnadu. Similarly to increase academic achievement level, attendance rate, transition rate, completion rate and reduce the rate of dropout and repetition are also considered to be a serious issue and are being treated with appropriate strategies for the quality of education. There is a substantial increase in enrolment, completion, retention achievement and reduction in dropout in 2002 & 2003 in Thoothukudi District. Another greatest concern is the lack of attractive and conducive environment in school campus. The infrastructure facilities and capacity building of teachers in transacting the teaching learning process at primary and upper primary levels are treated with specific interventions to make the school so attractive.
