Children can’t read a simple class 2-level text in class 3
Children can’t do a basic subtraction problem by class 3
Grade 3 is considered to be the inflection point by which children are expected to ‘learn to read’ so that later they can ‘read to learn’
Those who fail to attain these basic literacy and numeracy skills find it difficult to catch up in later years and risk dropping out of school
The future of our children and India’s ambition of maximizing its demographic dividend depend on whether children attain these basic reading and maths skills by grade 3
These skills enable children to learn more meaningfully in higher classes and acquire 21st century skills like problem-solving and critical thinking
