CSR Policy

CNN Tanda School

L&T Metro Rail (Hyderabad) Limited (LTMRHL) in association with The Atlanta Foundation (TAF) is supporting Chanda Nayak Tanda (CNN Tanda) Elementary School, near 100 ft. road, Ayyappa Society Colony, Madhapur. CNN Tanda has about 250 kids studying from Class I – Class V.  This is a commitment of LTMRHL towards sustainability and children’s education.

LTMRHL and TAF are partnering to implement The Learnasium Programme at CNN Tanda Government School for the benefit of underprivileged children.

As the part of this programme:

• LTMRHL will provide the funding and other such support to implement the program. TAF will execute its Learnasium Programme with the objective of enhancing the skills of the students in areas such as English, Mathematics etc.
• LTMRHL and TAF are working together to elevate the overall standards of education in CNN Tanda school and are striving to achieve the results similar to those already demonstrated in other government schools where Learnasium Programme has already been implemented. 
• Learnasium is a holistic education programme that provides a world-class learning-framework and testing components. A "Learnasium" certified Graduate would be an educated and enlightened individual in the truest sense of those words and would be an asset to society as a whole. The Learnasium Platform provides content, tools, and other resources to study and master the subjects outlined in the framework with necessary depth of knowledge while discovering the joy of learning.
• The Learnasium Contests put the students' and mentors' efforts to test and provide metrics that truly reflect the stage of progress of a student against necessary milestones. The unique feature of this contest is that it is based on true meritocracy where students from varied demographies compete with one another, and between “Private” & “Government” School Students.
