    A national survey found no leadership-focused training completed in 10 states. Indian school leaders' skills are lower than peers in 7 countries.

    One single person can drive school improvement significantly more than others—the school principal & increases student learning by 30%. School Principals in India lack access to professional development and contextual resources, leading to ineffective school management. We coach principals to become effective CEOs and Entrepreneurs so that they can use limited resources more effectively and improve both education and their school as a whole. This is done through fortnightly coaching, monthly webinars, and bimonthly peer-learning circles. A Rehnuma Coach guides Principals to apply workshop learnings to school transformation projects of their choice using their local knowledge and skill sets.

    School leaders are brimming with ideas on how to improve their schools, however, are unable to devote time to focus on these ideas due to the many challenges they face on a daily basis.

    RehnumaX is an approach to School Leader Professional Development. It aims to leverage stakeholders working with school leaders in various capacities to train to be catalysts for school transformation using the principles of coaching.

    Here:
    - School Leaders are HeadMasters and HeadMistresses, Principals, Vice-Principals, etc. who participate in decision-making for schools
    - Stakeholders working with school leaders are State-appointed resource persons (BMs, CRPs, etc.), Fellows placed as assistant school leaders or teachers in schools temporarily, etc.
    - School transformation is the process of improving school-wide practices toward students’ learning and development outcomes.
    Coaching is a prolonged engagement between two professionals to work towards the coachee’s goals with guidance from the coach.

    Through Rehnuma4Gov, we focus on capacity building, equipping principals with the necessary skills and mindset to drive meaningful change in their schools. Through the program, best practices that are contextual to India and created by principals at the grassroots level will be identified and documented. These practices, rooted in the local context, will serve as valuable resources for other principals and educators across the country.

    In 2022, we began working with the Uttar Pradesh government in partnership with Mantra4Change in order to achieve the goals of the Nipun Bharat mission. We are working with SCERT, Himachal Pradesh to improve student leadership in the school. We have also partnered with Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) and Raebareli to build FLN through school leadership.

    By 2025, we aim to impact 3 lakh+ education leaders through state and NGO partnerships.

Impact

We were invited by Shikshalokam to collaborate with NCERT to co-orchestrate Vidya Amrit Mahotsav–a national festival to generate and celebrate best practices tested by Indian educators. We were able to trigger half a million best practices & innovations by educators across India in 3 months. Furthermore, we have published our first book on Best Practices on School Leadership - Edupreneurs of the Future. This book features innovations by our school principals, educators, and student leaders. 100% of our school leaders recommend our programs. So far, we have coached 177+ principals directly through coaching, workshops, and peer learning circles. The impact of our work has reached 2 lac+ stakeholders through our government partnerships and the support of partner NGOs.
