Jivan Foundation Delhi - Urdu Schule
Sangita Vidhya Mandir (SVM) School was founded in 1995 in the slum of ITO where it continued to operate till this slum was demolished in 2006. The school was then shifted to its existing location, a rented flat in a nearby residential area.
In a four room flat, 225 girls and boys are tutored in two shifts a day from primary school to secondary school.
A school bus collects the younger students in the morning and takes them back home after school. In the evening the vehicle is used to bring back the girls back home. Without this safe transport parents would scarcely allow their daughters to go to school. Some of the students whose parents do not have a fix house in the slum are lodged in the hostel where they are well taken care of by the headmaster’s wife. She provides them with all the meals and takes care of them like her own 5 children.
Although most of the students are living in slums or on the roadside, many of them achieve after 12 years the school leaving certificate which is indispensable for a professional advancement or studies at a university.
A considerable part of graduates completed a vocational training and are now independent, others went on to complete a university course. The vocational training are wide ranging, from music to construction. On one such course SVM had a partnership with a French multinational company that provided professional training on drywall installation. As construction business is booming in Delhi, some of the students who did this course created their own companies and have secured their and their families’ future.
