Remedial Learning Program
 Pratham’s remedial learning programs are designed to develop and strengthen reading, writing and arithmetic skills among children of age 6 and above. These classes cover children who are enrolled in school but not keeping up with their grade level and children who are not enrolled in schools. There are two phases: In Learning to Read (L2R), children learn basic literacy and numeracy skills. In Reading to Learn (R2L), children learn more advanced skills.
