ATL Sarthi provides tools and support to schools to adopt a self-monitoring approach for better and continuous performance. It also provides necessary guidelines for local authorities like districts, states, innovation councils, private organizations etc. to help assess ATLs in their particular region and provide much-needed guidance and support to steer this ATL ecosystem to new heights.

As the name suggests, Sarthi is a charioteer and ATL Sarthi will enable the ATLs to be efficient and effective. The initiative has four pillars ensuring the performance enhancement of ATLs through regular process improvements like a self-reporting dashboard known as ‘MyATL Dashboard’ and development of SOPs for schools to ensure financial and non-financial compliances, on-ground assessments of ATLs in collaboration with relevant local authorities through cluster-based approach and providing ownership to schools to analyze their performance through Performance-Enablement matrix.
