Vikramshila Education Resource Society was founded in Kolkata in 1989 and has spent over three decades working on foundational literacy, numeracy and early-childhood education, framing its mission around child rights rather than test scores alone. It designs curricula, learning materials and teacher-training programs, then works through government-school systems and field offices to deliver them, with a footprint that now extends beyond West Bengal into Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Assam, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand and Tripura. Vikramshila positions itself as a resource organisation as much as a direct-delivery one — developing pedagogy and materials that partner schools, governments and other NGOs can adopt, aiming for children to become confident, resilient learners rather than only literate ones.
