WHAT
WE DO

Agrini aims to bring quality education to all, both at Agrini Public School and in the community, through various initiatives. Our programs enable our students and teachers to develop both personal and professional skills and become better citizens.

AGRINI PUBLIC SCHOOL.

Agrini Public School was setup in 2014 as a space where children, teachers and parents can together create an all round learning and nurturing environment. The school is based in a village called Kurai in Seoni district of Madhya Pradesh. Kurai lies on one side of a gentle hillock that neighbours the iconic Pench Tiger Reserve. Given its geographical limitations, the village suffers from lack of skilled manpower and resources. To overcome this, Agrini Public School began training local youth on teaching and learning processes. Through partnerships and associations with diverse Government and non-Government organisations, the school now has multiple teacher and parent engagement programs. The school campus is a place where educational innovators are welcome to ideate and implement their concepts.

AGRINI PUBLIC SCHOOL.

HOW IT ALL BEGAN.

"After 25 years of traveling around the country, I was convinced that education is the only sustainable change. I didn't have much to start with, but I did have some ancestral land in my village Kurai. I had like-minded people around me and smiling children. And that was all I needed", says Gourav, the engineer turned social entrepreneur who in less than a year, built a school in his village. 

The school was founded in 2014 with 62 children and now has 172 students from pre-school until standard 8th class from around 5 neighbouring villages.

WHERE WE WORK.

Kurai’s only identity used to be that it lies on NH7 when you drive from Nagpur to Seoni. Now it is on its way to become an educational example. It is the first village to have a community run school, where villagers work along with school staff to run the school. Community plays important role in decision making, and is included in taking important financial and administrative decisions.
