For children, schooling does not really end with school. But the difficulty is, children belonging to the depressed sections once they return home from their schools every day do not have the right environment and support for completing their home work or for studying. To address this problem, SDD has been operating free evening tuition centres in four villages located around Chetpet. These centres provide the environment and support required by children for doing their homework. Also each centre has one or two SDD volunteers to personally guide individual students. Right now each centre accommodates 30 students studying in different schools.
