Janachetana Primary School, Kalimati

Located at Ward No. 5 of Sankh VDC, Rukum this is one of the nearest Schools we can reach within an hour from district headquarter Musikot, Khalanga. The school lies far below the road and it is dangerous for climbing down, however, the small children were found using the same slippery route. The school was established in 2052 BS. The school was completely destroyed during insurgency and only 3 years ago the school was again started. Another important feature of the school is that when the government brought the policy of teacher licensing none of the teachers of the school could get the license. Hence after the teachers were sacked new vacancy was announced and the existing teachers were hired. There are 6 teachers altogether and the name of the head teacher is Mrs. Prem Kumari Sharma.
The school is managed by community and governing by an SMC, a PTA and supported by Mother Group and a Child Club. The school runs up to Grade 5 with about 170 students. There are about 30 Janajati and about 15 Dalit students. The school has about 100% promotion rate in last 3 years. The SMC, PTA, MG and Child Clubs have their regular meetings. The school has got support for ECD classroom, for plastering and parapet construction, for construction of boys and girls toilets and cash support for many other purposes from RtF program. The school has drinking water facility too. The school is declared as Child-friendly school and School as Zone of Peace.
