About Reach to Teach:

Reach To Teach is an education charity committed to improving the quality of teaching and learning outcomes in Government primary schools in India. Reach to Teach works in partnership with state governments and other organisations to bring about systemic changes in education and to improve the quality of teaching and learning outcomes amongst children with an emphasis on foundational learning and numeracy, higher order thinking skills and the use of technology.

The guiding principle underpinning all its programmes is that the whole education system and all roles within it should be considered from the perspective of how they can optimally support the learning needs, and overcome the learning challenges, of children. We believe that every child can learn, and that a strong foundational education maximises their chances of future success.

Over the last two years, Reach To Teach has expanded its activities from working at the community and school level in rural areas of Gujarat to partnering with state governments across the country on various high priority initiatives aimed at the overall objective of improving the quality of education.
