Rollout of ICDS program

The ICDS rollout preparation focused on strengthening curriculum, materials, training, and logistics to ensure a smooth and scalable launch of the NRich-ECCE program.

The Oct-Dec 2025 quarter also marked an important preparation phase for the launch of the NRich–ECCE program. Our focus was on ensuring that the curriculum and delivery systems were field-ready and practical for everyday classroom use.

Key efforts included:

  • Content validation to ensure age-appropriateness, clarity, and contextual relevance
  • Identification and procurement of Teaching–Learning Materials (TLMs) that are simple, adaptable, and low-cost
  • Facilitator training to support teachers with consistent pedagogical guidance
  • Logistics planning to enable smooth rollout across locations

With these foundations in place, the program is set to reach close to 100 schools across two gram panchayats over the next quarter. We look forward to sharing early insights and learnings from the rollout in the next edition of the newsletter.
