1. Overview

Bareilly, a city in Uttar Pradesh, India, faced significant educational challenges in its government school system. Limited resources, teacher shortages, and outdated teaching methodologies resulted in poor learning outcomes and high dropout rates, particularly in rural areas.

In partnership with the Uttar Pradesh Basic Education Department and the District Administration of Bareilly, Vinkura AI implemented a comprehensive AI-powered education solution across 2 government schools in the region, serving over 12,000 students from grades 6 to 12.

This case study details how our decentralized AI approach transformed these schools into modern learning environments, empowering both teachers and students with technology that works even in areas with limited connectivity and infrastructure.

2. The Challenge

Government schools in Bareilly faced multiple educational challenges that were becoming increasingly difficult to address with traditional methods:

1

High Student-Teacher Ratio

With an average of 45-50 students per teacher, providing personalized attention and addressing individual learning needs was nearly impossible.

2

Limited Teaching Resources

Schools lacked modern teaching aids, up-to-date learning materials, and resources for subjects like science and mathematics.

3

Inconsistent Internet Connectivity

Many schools, especially in rural areas of Bareilly, had unreliable or no internet connectivity, making traditional online learning solutions impractical.

4

Diverse Learning Levels

Students in the same class often had vastly different learning levels, making it challenging for teachers to deliver effective instruction to all students simultaneously.

5

Limited Teacher Training

Many teachers lacked training in modern pedagogical methods and technology integration, resulting in continued reliance on rote learning.

Traditional solutions like occasional teacher training programs and distributing printed materials were proving inadequate. The schools needed a comprehensive system that could work within existing infrastructure constraints while dramatically improving the quality of education.
