Sarva Siksha Abhiyan (SSA)

The goal of this program is that all children of 6-11 years of age should complete primary education by the year 2007 and all children of 6-14 years of age should complete eight years of schooling by 2010. This plan covers the whole country with special emphasis on girl education and education of Schedule Caste (SC) and Schedule Tribe (ST) children and children with special needs.

  1. Mahila Samakhya Scheme
  2. National Program for Education of Girls at Elementary Level (NPEGEL)
  3. Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV)
