About Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL)
Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) has been proven to work best for children who have not mastered the basics of reading and mathematics. Pratham’s experience has shown that TaRL can be particularly impactful for children in Grades 3 to 5. By this stage, the focus of the curriculum has shifted away from basic skills, which means creating time and space to help children who have fallen behind to master these skills is very relevant. In addition, Grade 3 to 5 children have been through a few years of schooling already and are thus better positioned for accelerated learning.
