Pillar: Education & Training
Thanjavur trains 337.9 youth per lakh under short-term skilling programmes, better than the typical district. 30.6% of young women aged 15 to 21 are out of education, close to the typical district. The Jan Shikshan Sansthan focuses non-formal skilling on dropouts and women who need a route back into livelihoods without returning to a classroom.
79% of registered enterprises are in services while 21% are in manufacturing. Only 3% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 72% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 19% of ITI trainers are certified.
In Thanjavur, which ranks 22 of 38 in Tamil Nadu for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 50.3 out of 100. It runs ahead of the national picture on women in the labour force at 54.3%. On skilling trainees who get certified at 98.9%, it sits close to the national mark.
