Also available in:
No results found.The pilot project on NFPE (Non—Formal Primary Education) for Orissa fisherfolk children grew out of an in service training scheme conducted by BOBP between March 1982 and July 1983 for 15 marine fisheries extension officers of Orissa. The scheme consisted of three modules, including one on community development. The work undertaken during the community development module led to the NFPE project. The NFPE pilot project was carried out in Orissa’s four coastal districts -- Balasore, Cuttack, Pun and Ganjam -- from 1983 to 1986. The project aimed at developing and demonstrating a non—formal primary education programme for fisherfolk children between the ages of 6 and 14. Children who satisfactorily complete the programme’s curriculum are free to choose whether to join standard VI of a formal school or to remain in the non—formal stream, which is presently being established. Under the project, a curriculum tailored to the needs and circumstances of Orissa’s marine fisherfolk ch ildren was prepared and finalized in cooperation with various state and central authorities —— the Department of Fisheries, the Department of Education, SCERT and NCERT. Several workshops with 50—60 participants were held to review the draft material and also to train teachers to use the material. -
