Abstract

The government of Andhra Pradesh mainly focused on three programmes namely Jagananna Amma Vodi, Jagananna Vidya Kanuka, and Mana Badi Nadu-Nedu, for improving the quality of school education. The present paper aims to evaluate these programmes. The study selected two regions, namely tribal and non-tribal schools, in Visakhapatnam district of Andhra Pradesh. The higher proportion of parents, i.e., 60% of parents, admit their children to government or government-aided schools. The majority of the respondents were girl children, accounting for 161 (53.67%), and boys, 139 (46.33%), in the study region. In both sample mandals, a sizable portion of pupils drop out of school at the secondary level. A whopping 96% of parents who responded to the survey said the Amma Vodi scheme was highly effective in preventing dropouts and that the money they earned through it was used for their kids' benefit. About 97 percent of parents were aware of the implementation of the Nadu-Nedu programme. 100% of parents are happy with Jagananna Vidya Kanuka, and all of them expressed that their children are receiving books and uniforms on time.
