Education plays an essential role in the overall personality development of individual. What is more important is provision of quality education rather than opening institutions without taking care about quality issues.

Gradually various national, international and state boards and organizations of school education came into existence to serve some or the other purposes. In the education sector, many NGOs have moved beyond ‘gap-filling’ initiatives into capacity building activities. This article presents the findings about the factors of Al-Ameen Mission influencing its own image in the sector of education for the upliftment of backward community in West Bengal.

Now the Mission has 64 branches with almost 13 thousand resident students (both boys and girls) from Class-V to Class-XII & Coaching Courses for NEET, JEE main and WB JEE, and 5 thousand day-scholars[2]............
