Year 2014 - Scenario before joining Gyan Deepak

  • Their father was an alcoholic and had taken loans to pay for his drinking habits.
  • Ravi and Ragini used to study in a government school in Garcha Road, Kolkata.
  • Ravi was studying in class 3 and Ragini was a student of nursery class.
  • They were always reluctant to attend their school because of the following reasons:
    •  Teachers never used to teach anything
    • Teachers were absent most of the times
    • Questions and answers were dictated before the exams to enable students to clear the exams every year
    • School environment was very depressing and miserable

  • Their father has quit alcohol and has paid off his loans.
  • Both Ravi and Ragini are studying in English medium private schools now and their school fee is being funded by GDF.
  • Both of them are rank holders in their respective schools.
  • The entire family wakes at 5 am and goes to a nearby park to exercise.

Bhoomi School Report Card

Bhoomi Yadav

Our students inspire us by their courage and perseverance, and are a reminder that obstacles can be overcome. Bhoomi Yadav is a true example of this.She comes from a less privileged background ,where her father works as a toll tax collector and finds it difficult to pay her school fees. She joined us in class 7 , wherein Gyandeepak sponsored her school fees and started looking at her overall grooming and academics also. Today she is in class 10 and a rank holder in her school. A highly potential girl who dreams to fly high, and is ready to take up any competitions not just like a challenge but also like a learning platform. She has won accolades in different skills like public speaking, elocution etc.. She dreams to be an IAS officer and her dream is our dream too....
