**STAR Education, Manipur**:
System Transformation and Rejuvenation (STAR) Education, Manipur is a program envisioned by the State Government leadership to transform existing Government schools across the state serving the secondary and primary student population across the state of Manipur. As part of the School Fagathansi Mission of the Government of Manipur, STAR will introduce innovative technology and a data-driven platform, coupled with high quality learning materials, effective training and ongoing coaching for teachers and school head masters, and technology-enabled support teams to create 360-degree support for learning outcomes. STAR will not only position Manipur as one of the first states across India to implement the National Education Policy 2020, but will also be one of India's first movement for social justice pioneered by audacious and reform minded political leaders. STAR will ensure that regardless of a child's location of birth or the income or education levels of their parents, that all children of Manipur have the opportunity to reach their full potential. STAR will be a milestone for India's education reform movement demonstrating that radical transformation and impact is possible at large scale.

**People Group**:
Our people are at the core of what we do, from the teachers in our schools to the software developers building our tech platform - and we do it at massive scale with rapid growth. We are the champions of STAR Education's culture. We find passionate change-makers across rural communities, informal settlements and global cities who want to lead the movement to reform public education. We help them grow through continuous learning, strong focus on performance and extensive collaboration. We rely on technology to engage with, innovate for and serve thousands of our people spread across multiple time-zones. We are evidence-based, outcomes driven and lead through service.

**Administration Department**:
The Administration team designs, develops and administers all workplaces where our employees are based, whether it be the training site, warehouse, the organisation guest house and/or our support office. Our support office is the central hub for all support functions which serve our pupils. We host all our staff at the training site regularly as part of their ongoing leadership and development. In many of our territories, we have central warehousing facilities to store and deliver school materials (textbooks, uniforms etc.) and, depending on the amount of international travel, a guest house to host STAR Education visitors.

STAR Education workplaces should be safe, secure and hygienic and designed to encourage a productive work environment that is focused on innovation and effective cross-functional collaboration. Our workplaces, when designed thoughtfully and administered well, help us stay connected to why we do, what we do, every day.
