100 DAYS READING CAMPAIGN
A NATIONWIDE INITIATIVE FOR CREATING A JOYFUL READING EXPERIENCE FOR CHILDREN.
Department of School Education and Literacy has launched a National Mission for foundational literacy and Numeracy called NIPUN Bharat on 5th July 2021. The mission aims to cover the learning needs of children from age group of 3 to 9 years. As established by various international researches, foundational learning is the basis of all future learning for a child. Not achieving basic foundational skills of being able to read with comprehension, writing and doing basic mathematics operations, leaves the child unprepared for the complexities of the curriculum beyond grade 3. Recognizing the importance of early learning, the National Education Policy 2020 emphasizes that the highest priority must be to achieve universal foundational literacy and numeracy in primary schools. Further, it states that, the rest of this Policy will be largely irrelevant for a large portion of our students if this most basic learning (i.e., reading, writing, and arithmetic at the foundational level) is not first achieved.
It is in this context, D/o School Education and Literacy is initiating a NATIONWIDE READING CAMPAIGN so that each child learns to read and thereafter, can read to learn
