Non Formal Primary Education. NFPE (ESP)
SEDAEPO start non-formal primary education since 1990. Asset less destitute poor people of Bangladesh cannot comprehend the importance of their children’s. They do not have the ability to purchase educational materials for them. Though some children go to school, but in a certain level, they also drop out. We strongly believe that through this type of efforts from non-government organizations along with government initiative to remove illiteracy from the society we will be able to build an illiteracy free Bangladesh.
In order to implement this project, SEDAEPO collects such target people together and through discussions with them makes conscious about the importance of education. With peoples help village are surveyed and after collecting non-school going children and about 8/10 years. SEDAEPO then establishes a school in those villages. By supplying free teaching equipment these children are mad literate in a non-formal way for three years. After three years then they are admitted in a good school so that they can continue further studies.
Even if they do not continue further studies, still the three years old SEDAEPO inspired education gives them ability to maintain daily house hold expense accounts, to read health and other useful books and manages to read properly document and to about their life in and scientific production of these.

STAGES OF INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT
Jean piaget, the dean of development psychologists, identified four stages in intellectual development (1962). The sequences of these stages is inviolable although the average age of each stage can be stated. The age at which stage is reached will vary with social and cultural environment of child. That is intellectual development can be accelerated for retarded by environmental enrichment or impoverishment.
A. Sensorimotor stage (birth to two years)
Action are at first random and reflex with gradual development of coordination and sense of space the child reacts at first only to perceptual signs. If a toy is removed from sight. The child is not sure that it still exists increasingly the child is able to apply actions to new situations and to experiment with new means to desired ends. For example; by pulling a blanket on which toy rests. By age one and a half to two. The beginning of memory and planning is evident. As the child invents new means by mental combination. Symbolic thought becomes apparent in representational play.
B. proportional stage (two to seven years)
The development language gives great flexibility to intelligence. At first children center their attention on only one aspect of an object or situation, later they can perceive relationships among parts at stage they reason from what they see, not from abstractions. Classification is undeveloped. If shown a bunch of flowers, half of which are daisies, they cannot say whether there are more flowers than daisies. They begin to use space and time and to observe social behavior by age seven, but cannot explain them. From two to four the child’s social is entirely egocentric from four to seven this gives way to social directed thought and action.
C. Stage of concrete operations (Seven to twelve years)
Ability to classify and serialize, to arrange objects by size, and the concept of reversibility develop between about seven and eight. The child’s social competence is increased with development of language and understanding of the relativity of viewpoint. The child is concerned with the actual and characteristically soaves problems in terms of direct experience.
D. Stage of Formal operations (twelve to sixteen years)
Preadolescents begin to solve purely verbal problems, to understand the concepts of proportion and reciprocity. They are able to integrate their new intellectual capacities for explanatory purposes. They can manipulate abstract ides, and they become concerned with the possible rather than the actual. They are idealistic and tend to believe in the omnipotence of thought the ability to distinguish what is conceptually possible and what is attainable in fact comes after abolescensnce as result of experience in the real world.
