What is Centre for Learning
'The relevance of CFL lies in the fact that it is an attempt to discover afresh what quality education must mean – by critically examining existing practices from the point of view of children and the society that we desire to create."
CFL is an education centre with a passionate commitment to quality in education.We offer personally meaningful and socially responsible education as opposed to mere schooling.
The face of CFL is the children's learning centre, an alternative education centre for children between 3 and 16 years. The heart of CFL is a serious conceptual and hands-on enquiry into quality education. We attempt to show how meaningful education can empower all individuals, including the disadvantaged groups, rather than make them unwitting collaborators in their own exploitation.
We work with children, parents, interested individuals and groups and organizations from all backgrounds – regardless of their ability to pay – through:
The Children's Learning Centre- Attempts to let children learn at their own pace, free of fear and coercion to help them grow into self-actualizing, self-disciplined, independent learners.
The Public Education program- Engages with people on issues related to education, parenting, social, cultural and ecology concerns.
- for parents to consult about their children
- for schools/organizations to improve their education programme
