Impact

On the supply side, the learning outcomes in intervention cohorts on an average are 4X in literacy and 2X in numeracy of the control cohort across Std 1, 2 and 3. Then, through our pilot in 2,500 schools, we have measured 12.5% improvement in literacy skills in 3 months. Additionally, we trained the Government officials on effective data collection practices which led to 13.5% improvement in accuracy of data collection in 3 months. Based on the success of these interventions, we have scaled to 36,700 schools working with 80,000 teachers and impacting over 1.3 million children. The intervention launched in June 2022, has shown tremendous improvement in implementation fidelity as training effectiveness has improved by 36% and classroom practice adherence (usage of curricular materials, conducting assessments, etc.,) has improved by 18% in the last 9 months. On the demand side, we aim to impact 50,000 parents and children across 600 habitations in Tamil Nadu by 2024 through our Communities Enabling Foundational Learning (CEFL) project. We are currently running a pilot for CEFL with 250 parents across 8 hamlets in Tamil Nadu, India.

Vision and Mission

Madhi's vision is 'Foundational learning first, so every child can thrive' and its mission is to achieve universal foundational literacy and numeracy among India's primary school children by 2025.
