Objectives of Presentation
 To understand the nonformal practices in
a very short range in the perspective of
Bangladesh.
 To sketch the shapes & elements of

different nonformal schools.
 To discover the existing situation in some

selected nonformal schools of
Bangladesh.

How schools have been selected?
 The schools have been selected through
Purposive Sampling.
 In school selection procedure, Purposive
Sampling has used to ensure the optimum
utilization of all technical resources that was
available & to avoid unwanted data bug.
 As I personally worked in the field to gather
all information, my limitations were in
consideration & thus Purposive Sampling was
the best fit.

Affectivity
 Multitreat system is a new dimension in case of today's
multi dimensional knowledge. From the entry level of
study a student has to read subjects. Sometimes it is not
possible to learn every subjects with same competency.
The speech is most probable for the deprived children.
That’s why multitreat educational system has been
developed to earn the desired competency without
losing time/year.
In that system, if a student fail in any subject
enrollment is allowed with the repetition of that course
with the previous class. That will increase the
affectivity of the school.
