Ground Zero - Unlock Education I EDGE 2020

Aksha Ali and Shahzadi Gulafsha from Samaritan Mission (High) School, and Vinod Ram, Principal, Samaritan Mission (High) School (SHM) in conversation with Atul Gandhi, Head, Investment, EdelGive Foundation. Aksha, a student of Class X, shared her experience as a student in the lockdown. While the initial announcement seemed to not have a very severe impact on her studies; as the days progressed and the lockdown extended, she started to get concerned on the future of her studies. When online studies was announced, a month into the lockdown, though
challenging, Aksha was able to adapt to the new online format. Shahzadi, on the other hand, in addition to existing challenges, also had to deal with the circumstances of absence of connectivity and strain on her health due to the prolonged hours of online study. The dream of topping the district was marred with the challenges that online studies impose in terms of practical engagement especially for important subjects. Support from her community, her neighbours and her family has enabled her to continue her education to the best of her ability.
