"We are glad to connect and share about our School"
"Creativity is the key to success in the future, and primary education is where teachers can bring creativity in children at that level".- (APJ Abdul Kalam)
INTRODUCTION
Ebion Public School (EPS) is a school especially dedicated for the less privileged children in rural areas. EPS started out of personal experiences and conviction, and a sense of calling to respond to the need of the poorest children, who are mostly wounded souls, victims of heinous crimes, conflict, extreme poverty and hunger, physical abuse, neglect and exploitation.
Ebion is a Hebrew word meaning poor people seeking for justice. As the name suggest, EPS aims to facilitate equal opportunity in the education sector in India by making quality education available, accessible and affordable to the poorest so that both girls and boys have equal opportunity to develop their inborn talents and potentials and come up in life. The purpose of EPS is to set up a network of schools in rural India.
HISTORY OF EPS, MAJULI
Mr. Amulya Pegu a community leader from Mishing tribe living in Borpamua village of Jengraimukh, Majuli Island, Jorhat district, Assam. He is a well-known person in his community and in the Island. Due to poor education in the Island he had a dream of running school for his community. Hence, in 2006 he started a School called Majuli Island English School from the support of Gospel for Asia with 112 students for Kindergarten . Though, Mr. Amulya Pegu himself is not highly educated, he took up the challenge and started a School. With the support of his friends and near ones he could runned the school till 2013.
Through a common friend Mr. Amulya Pegu contacted Mr. Sem Haokip in December 2013. After many rounds of discussion, the school management and leadership was handed over to Mr. Sem Haokip from January 2014 under the banner of "Ebion Public School" run and managed by "Society for Promotion of Tribal Welfare and Development" (SPTWD,) a Delhi based charitable society engaged in women and child focus education centred community development work in Delhi and North East India. At present, the school is being run in a makeshift tin-roof and bamboo wall Assam type house. There are limited learning materials and teaching aids, library, science lab and sports materials. In short, the school has limited joyful learning opportunities for the children. Even basic facilities are yet to be provided. Majority of the teachers are from the local who are qualified, dedicated and committed, though they have no prior teaching experiences.
