ABSTRACT

Student retention is a major issue in India's educational system, especially for underprivileged groups. This urgent problem is being addressed by a new digital project. According to research, 17% of pupils drop out of school early, with greater rates in rural areas that face economic hardship. A complete digital learning platform has been created through this cooperative effort with NGOs and is provided free of charge to children who are at danger of dropping out of school. In order to facilitate smooth communication between teachers and students, the system incorporates a virtual classroom portal that is built with PHP for reliable backend functions and HTML/CSS for an accessible frontend interface. Systems for overseeing the allocation of financial help, customized learning paths, analytical tools for analyzing dropout trends, and a specific interface for family engagement are all crucial elements. All stakeholders, including parents, instructors, and kids, can readily access these resources thanks to the platform's simple login process. The effort aims to reduce the socioeconomic hurdles that cause educational discontinuance while promoting academic accomplishment and student retention through this multidimensional strategy that combines financial support, community involvement, and academic aid.
