Crores are spent on education programmes every year, with no test that shows where a child actually stands against her grade, or how far she moved while the programme ran. A ₹10 test per child answers both.
₹10 per child, once
Under a minute to ask. We bring the phones.
The diagnostic
Sixty minutes, one phone, no adult needed.
Starts at the very bottom.The test moves up the Vana ladder — the 245 skills of primary maths, in the order they build on each other — to find exactly where each child stands.
Covers all the basics of numeracy.From reading a two-digit number to fractions and decimals.
The child does it alone.Every question is read aloud in Hindi. No hints, no ticks, no sounds. The test asks two questions at each step and stops after four wrong in a row, so one slip is never a verdict.
Two reports.A one-page report for the parent, in Hindi. A benchmark report for your organisation: each child's true level, set against where her grade says she should be, and how far she moved during your programme.
