Here is another story along the lines of the work that has been done at Springdales. Super 30 is a school started by Anand Kumar, mathematics teacher; and Abhyanand (BIhar’s Additional Director-General of Police), who teaches physics; for preparing 30 students from poor, low caste, minority families.

Super 30 took shape five years ago and its success can serve as a model for other such institutes across India. 18 of its students cracked the IIT-JEE in 2003 the year Super 30 was set up. The number rose to 22 in 2004 and 26 in 2005 and has been steadily increasing over the years.
