We have embarked upon a humble mission to: transform fifty thousand lives through education by 2050. We at Sitare Foundation, strongly believe that India is leaving its bright underprivileged children behind. Here are some of the organizations working to educate the bright underprivileged children of India: By providing decent education to our talented underprivileged children, we will not only be benefiting them, but also to the future of our nation. Without equal access to this power, a society simply can’t hope to thrive. Knowledge, as the old saying goes, is power. In today’s challenging global market, getting on the appropriate educational track early is essential. These schools are frequently drowned in issues that appear to be more vital, at least in the short term, than serving the gifted. Talented students from low-income, minority households can easily go unnoticed in our education system, especially when they attend their communities’ often-struggling schools. We could reduce global poverty by more than half if all adults completed secondary education. According to UNESCO, an estimated 171 million individuals could escape extreme poverty if all students in low-income nations had only basic reading skills (nothing else).
There is no justification for ignoring our finest students.Įducation is the only reliable way out of poverty. We at the Sitare Foundation are deep believers in the United Negro College Fund’s slogan: a mind is a terrible thing to waste. Hundreds of thousands of gifted children are currently deprived of the resources and opportunities they deserve. Our current path of not paying extra attention to the education of gifted students is detrimental for the country. Students who are economically deprived unfortunately are often stigmatized as “uneducable.” Why should we care so deeply about their education? An economically disadvantaged child is neglected in gifted and talented programs due to the stigma of poverty. The lower socioeconomic group is where the most talent is squandered.

Most significantly, we need to celebrates giftedness, rather than lament using extra resources for the most gifted minds.Ī very large proportion of our brightest young children do not reach their full potential. Furthermore, options to enroll in specialized institutions such as “exam schools,” STEM schools, and no-excuses charter schools are also important. They need more “gifted and talented” programs in primary schools, more honors and Advanced Placement courses in secondary schools etc. The truth is that high-ability students do not need more money to attend school rather, they require the opportunity to learn at a faster pace than other students. How are our bright minds left out of quality education? However, before we talk about why educating our bright minds is of paramount importance, let’s understand why they’re unable to access quality education. The amount of change these bright minds will bring to a country can be tremendous. They require modification(s) to their educational experience(s) to learn and realize their potential. A ccording to the US National Association for Gifted Children : Students with gifts and talents perform-or have the capability to perform-at higher levels compared to others of the same age, experience, and environment in one or more domains. The terms “gifted”, “talented”, or “bright” are commonly used to characterize a wide spectrum of human extraordinary performance. Who are the bright underprivileged children? Alongside the focus on educating every child, nations should have a special focus on identifying and properly educating their bright children these children can have a disproportionate impact on the advancement of a country. Ambedkar’s and Abdul Kalam Azad’s intellect, India would not have seen their brilliance. Without the generosity of teachers and mentors who embraced B.R. Government schools in India are primarily attended by children from lower socioeconomic groups the sheer numbers there do not allow government schools to impart the kind of education India’s bright children need. For talented kids from impoverished backgrounds to get ahead in life, they need level-appropriate education that would challenge them.
