In  order  to  ensure  that  every  student  including  those  residing  in  rural  and  educationally backward districts of the country, gets continuous access to education, a multi-pronged approach has been adopted by the Department of School Education and Literacy, Ministry of Education.

It envisages the 'school' as a continuum from pre-school,  primary,  upper  primary,  secondary  to  Senior  Secondary  levels.  It  is  an  overarching programme for the school education sector extending from pre-school to class XII and aims to ensure inclusive  and  equitable  quality  education  at  all  levels  of  school  education.  Samagra  Shiksha  is implemented  in  partnership  with  all  the  States  and  UTs  and  financial  assistance  is  provided  to  all States and UTs for various components including strengthening of ICT infrastructure in schools. Under Samagra Shiksha, ICT component envisages covering all Government and Aided schools from classes VI to XII and Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs), subject to the availability of budgetary provision.

ICT component covers Government and Aided Schools having classes from VI to XII which will enable use of ICT resources from younger grades.
