After the inception of Sarva Shikshya Abhiyan (SSA) in the district in the year 2001, the District Project Coordinator (DPC) is in the
overall administrative charge of all SSA activities taken throughout the district. The D.I. of Schools have been designated as Addl. District

pedagogical improvement in the elementary level of education, Gender Coordinator looking after different activities related to girls’
education, Early Child Care Education (ECCE) & Community mobilization, IED Coordinator in charge of education of Children With
Special Needs (CWSN) & MIS Programmer in charge of District level education database & Management Information Systems.Block
Resource Centers (BRCs) have been set up at each 17 blocks of the District for smooth execution of different SSA activities at the block
level. At present one Block Resource Centre Coordinator (BRCC) is in position to look after different SSA activities at Block levels. At
present 17 BRCCs and 215 CRCCs are in positions in different blocks, clusters and municipalities of the District.
Again to strengthen implementation of different SSA activities at grass root level each block has been divided into 12 schools as a one
Cluster and in each cluster one Cluster Resource Centre Coordinator (CRCC) has been engaged in order to coordinate different
activities conducted at cluster levels. In total 215 CRCCs are in positions in 215 clusters of the District.

PLANNING & MANAGEMENTThe Planning Unit at the DPO level plays the role of a facilitator, integrator and disseminator guiding, monitoring
and strengthening the decentralized and participative planning process. It ensures that district plans are in line with SSA objectives, that focus are in respect of the objectives and the indicators such as school less habitation, number of out of school children in each habitation, single teacher schools, infrastructure development plans for primary and upper primary schools, GP-wise plan for 100% enrolment and retention are adequately reflected in the district plans and that access has been provided to all deserving school-less habitations. The plans are upgraded to include upper primary education.
•Planning is based on multiple sources of data. Household surveys are the primary source of data. School surveys are carried out for the purpose of planning. Community ownership and participation in management of elementary education is the distinctive features of planning. Community takes over the ownership in case of EGS & AIE Scheme. Community is involved in infrastructure development of the school. School Improvement Grants, Repair & Maintenance Grants, TLM Grants are released in favour of the Village Education Committee.
•Planning ensures adoption of strategies for improving the quality of education at the district level. New resource structures at the block and cluster level have been planned. Capacity building programmes are designed for continuous development of these institutions as well as the teachers. Community awareness programmes are an in-built feature of district plans, which elicit wider participation of stakeholders in the programmes.
•For better and grass-root planning the CLPT and BLPT are formed:•Cluster Level Planning Team (CLPT). A nine member Cluster Level Planning Team has already been formed at each cluster to prepare a need based grass root educational plan for the respective cluster. The CRCC of the concerned cluster is the member convener of the CLPT .•Block level Planning Team (BLPT). A twelve member block level planning team has already been constituted to prepare block level educational plan . The BDO and BRCC of the concerned block are the chairman and member convener respectively of the BLPT .
• Orientation of BRCCs and CRCCs on Educational Planning . All 17 BRCCs and 215 CRCCs have already been oriented on the planning process , information collection methodologies , educational indicators and preparation of block and cluster level educational plan .

INTEGRATED EDUCATION FOR DISABLED (I.E.D.)
•MIS plays a key role in the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan. Managing information better, became an
unceasing quest for making a critical requirement for leadership in each and every sphere.
District Primary Education Programme is first amongst the social sector projects in India that is
being so closely monitored through a management information system. Various data are being
collected, computerised and compiled in a systematic process for effective planning and
progress monitoring. Two major parts of MIS are: Educational Management Information
System(EMIS) and Project Management Information System (PMIS). The EMIS provides detail
educational indicators for time series and single year down from individual school level up to
the national level. Where as PMIS provides intervention wise financial & physical targets and
achievements of different institutions down from VEC up to the SPO level.
•Management Information System works as Statistical support system for educational planning.
The district MIS collects statistics on enrollment, teachers and infrastructures of Schools
through a tool named District Information System for Education (DISE) and for child population
a specially designed state specific tool named Child tracking System (CTS) for which the state
has been awarded with Prime Ministers Award for excellence in public Administration for the
year 2006-07.
MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM
•The Data from school level has been collected through DISE, the database has been maintained for last four years.
•The Analysis of DISE has been done and shared with the District Level officials.
•Orissa Child Census-2005, Child Tracking System-2006 as well as CTS Updation-2007 were conducted and the survey was
finished within due time. The consolidated data is also available in the website: www.opepa.in
•Apart from these, district MIS has shared the available data with other line departments such as DWSM regarding water and
toilet facility, ST-SC department regarding tribal enrolment and district administration regarding enrolment and out of school
children.
•The Planning of the district has been made on the basis of CTS data.
•30 nos. of schools have been adopted in 1st phase for Computer Aided Education. The entire system has been completed
and the computers have been installed. In 2nd phase 40 nos. of schools are to be covered under CAE in the district.
•The training has been imparted to the teachers of the 30 nos. of schools covered under CAE (1 st Phase).
•District has conducted some innovation programs like Summer Camp-2005, Quiz Competition-2006 and Winter camp-
2007under Innovative Education activity.
•All the BRCCs have already been oriented on PMIS & EMIS throughout the district for better monitoring and implementation
of the project work.
•To monitor the progress of the activities approved in annual work plan and budget, GOI has designed a on-line web-based
monitoring tool. The district has completed the annual reporting for the year 2007-08 and for the year 2008-09, the budget and
expenditure upto 3rd quarter has already been reported.

•SC/ ST Education:
•A child in a tribal society may process information in an
altogether different manner as compared to one from the
urban areas and high socio-economic stratum. Pedagogy
therefore should be culture specific. Instead of using one
uniform, mechanistic way of students learning, cultural
practices such as story telling, dramatics, puppetry, folk
play, community living etc. should become a strong basis of
pedagogy. The Analysis of DISE has been done and shared
with the District Level officials.
•Gap of home language and school language is a major
challenge in ensuring retention and quality improvement.
While access and enrollment of ST children are ensured in
the district, access to the language of the child is still a big
challenge which needs to be addressed in tribal area
schools. Therefore teachers are imparted attitudinal training,
Bi-lingual primers on Munda & Oram has been developed in
the district.
INNOVATIONS

PROBLEMS & ISSUES
•Sundergarh being a tribal dominated district having scattered habitations, the facility of access to schools to each tribal children is yet to be provided.
•The Shortage of teacher as per 1: 40 PTR in few specific blocks is a still continuing problem of the district. It is expected that, after engagement of fresh Shikhya Sahayak (SS) and Gana-Shikshak this problem will be shorted out to a greater extent.
•Since more than 60% of total population of the district are from tribal community, so there is a lack of awareness among the community as the result of which enrollment and retention is very poor in some of the tribal dominated blocks of the district.
