We don't take over schools - we mentor the people who run them. Muktangan partners with government and NGO school clusters to build the capacity of teachers, leaders and communities, so change is owned by the school and lasts long after we leave.
Rather than simply opening more schools or scaling numbers, we choose to share what works - so change can take root across the wider system.
“We don't take over the schools. We mentor the people who run them.”
Muktangan School Transformation ModelA real, lasting change in a school needs more than one fix. We work on four connected levers together.
Moving teachers from rote instruction to active, child-centred teaching - through subject-specific workshops, weekly curriculum design meetings, lesson planning and formative assessment, backed by in-classroom support.
Helping schools build child-friendly classrooms and daily routines that make space for activity, interaction and individual attention - changing how the whole school day works, not just how rooms look.
We mentor schools to bring families in as partners - through orientation, dialogue and community events such as education fairs - so parents become active stakeholders in their children's learning.
Working with head teachers and school leaders on processes to sustain and own the transformation - embedding participatory leadership practices that outlast our involvement.
Designed to spread - and to last.
Cluster-Based. We work with clusters of schools within a district or municipal body - not one school in isolation - building a common vision across teachers, headmasters, parents and communities.
Whole School Approach. We encourage transformation in every section and area of the school so change is holistic and all-round, not confined to a single classroom.
Job-Embedded Learning. Curriculum Understanding, Design and Development (CUDD) sessions give teachers autonomy to Plan, Practice and Reflect on their own teaching-learning process.
On-Site Support. Classroom observation and live demonstrations turn workshop ideas into everyday practice, right inside the teacher's own classroom.
Measured. Baseline, mid-line and end-line assessments track a school's practices against clear parameters - so impact is visible, not assumed.
It is Muktangan's outreach work with government and NGO-run school clusters, building the capacity of teachers, leaders and communities so schools can transform themselves.
No. The schools remain with their government or NGO owners. We build capacity from within, so change is owned and lasts.
Four connected levers: curriculum & pedagogy, learning environments, parent & community participation, and school leadership.
