REI Priority Areas
The REI is inspired by the philosophy, approach and results of the Jordan Education Initiative (JEI). However, unlike the Jordan Education Initiative, which focused on technology interventions only, REI has both ICT as well non-ICT based projects as a part of the programme. The scale of REI operation is much wider, impacting larger number of schools, teachers and students. The REI framework comprises need based and multi-dimensional approaches and activities.
The REI promotes the State’s educational objectives by focusing on improving the delivery of educational services, in particular on promoting equitable access, enrolment and retention of children in school, reducing gender disparities, promoting skill development and enhancing learning levels. The REI also focuses on strengthening hard and soft infrastructure including quality of teaching and learning.
The focus remains on girls, rural children, urban underprivileged children, and children with special needs. The Government of Rajasthan is of the opinion that, the project period of the REI should be co-terminus with the tenth plan period i.e.2011.
