The Govt. Higher Primary School is in Ejipura, which is inSouth of Bangalore. In grades 1-7, there are about 450 students enrolled at this school. There are about 9 teachers (Including HM). For classes 5, 6, and 7, the language of instruction is Kannada, and for classes 1 to 4, the language of instruction is English. The school has a good infrastructure, including a computer lab with 15 systems and internet access and a big auditorium available for events. There is no separate playground for students to play outdoer games, so they practise sports on the school campus.

We had the chance to work with 40 Seventh grade out of the 450 students. Children in Grade 7 speak Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Bhojpuri as their home language. However, the majority of the children could communicate in Kannada.They are marginalised in society because of their parents' socioeconomic status and the fact that the majority of them are single parents. Additionally, the majority of parents have no formal education. The interaction/relationship between the Teacher and students seem to be good.

'''Involving Parents/families'''- We were able to participate in a parent meeting for the class 7 children and make it more meaningful with the help of the class teacher coordination. (Parents meeting at Ejipura - This page can be linked)

The Govt. model higher primary school was located on Adugodi signal behind BOSCH company, which is in South of Bangalore and had approximately 400 students from 1st to 7th grade. For classes 1 to 4, the language of instruction is English, and for classes 5-7, the language of instruction is Kannada. There were 8 teachers(including HM), with some teaching Nali Kali classes from 1 to 3 and others teaching classes for remaining classes.
Class 6 has nearly 41 students enrolled, but only 36 attend regularly because some are long absentees and others are ill. Class 6 is a Kannada medium school with students who are multilingual in Kannada, Tamil, Hindi, and Telugu. The majority of the children, however, could communicate in Kannada. Because of their parents' socioeconomic status, they are socially marginalized. The interaction/relationship between the teacher and the students does not appear to be good. Corporal Punishment appears to exist (Teachers walk with stick to Classrooms). Teachers believe that it is difficult to manage children without a stick, and that children will only listen if a stick is used.
