The Karnataka Learning Partnership is a unique partnership between the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan and Akshara Foundation and has been set up to improve learning outcomes among primary school children in government schools in Karnataka. It aims to reach out to every child in Karnataka to ensure that they are learning at the age appropriate level.
The first phase of the programme was implemented in 2006 where the Accelerated Programme for Reading was conducted in 1301 government schools in Bangalore Urban District. 75,000 children who were unable to read were put through the programme to improve their reading ability.

In 2007, the Karnataka Learning Partnership will roll out an Accelerated Programme for Mathematics in Bangalore and also extend the Accelerated Programme for Reading to other parts of Karnataka.
