Fifteen years into the journey, the movement now has 5,000+ Alumni working at every level of the education system, reaching 1 in 10 children across the country. Around 1,000 Fellows teach in under-resourced classrooms every year, putting nearly 33,500 low-income children on a different life path. As of November 2024, over 16,000 Teach For India students have appeared for the 10th grade board exams, with a 95% pass rate across cities.
