What is the Madhya Pradesh NIPUN Professionals Program?

The Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) has been at the forefront of education reforms. In line with the guidelines of the National Education Policy 2020 and to achieve the vision of the NIPUN Bharat Mission, GoMP launched Mission Ankur, the State’s Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN) mission. Its goal is to achieve universal FLN skills for students in Grades 1, 2, and 3 by 2026-2027.

The Madhya Pradesh NIPUN Professionals Program aims to strengthen the implementation of Mission Ankur by enlisting 52 young and dynamic professionals to work with the district administration. They will serve as catalysts for driving mission implementation and resolving complex challenges in the education system. The program is a collaboration between GoMP and the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), Mumbai. It provides a unique two-year, full-time, paid experiential opportunity to lead large-scale systemic reforms and achieve foundational learning goals in Madhya Pradesh.

Applications are invited from all over India until May 21, 2023.

What is Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN)? Why is it important?

Children in India cannot read

a simple Grade 2 level text in Grade 3

Children in India cannot solve

a basic subtraction problem by Grade 3

The education system in India is one of the largest in the world, with over 26.5 crore children studying in more than 14.9 lakh schools across the country. 

Today, nearly 98% of children in the age group of 6 to 14 years are enrolled in school. Despite this high enrollment rate, the learning levels and outcomes of Indian children remain very low. 

The learning crisis starts early, Strong foundational skills are essential to ensure that every child has an equal opportunity to succeed.
