As there was a prevalent tradition of marrying girls before they hit puberty, she was married at the tender age of nine to thirteen years old Jyotiba Phule, who was determined to reform the society which held deeply entrenched conservative views regarding gender and caste. Girls were denied a formal education because of the conservative views that people held, widows' heads were shaved and they were looked down upon even after the abolition of Sati. He took the responsibility of educating Savitri Bai and accomplished this by educating her at home; the responsibility of her higher education was taken care of by Jyotiba's friends Sakharam Yeshwant Paranjpe and Keshav Shivram Bhavalkar.
After gaining education she enrolled in two teacher's training programs, first in an institution run by Cynthia Farrar in Ahmednagar and the second course at a normal school in Pune along with Fatima.

She opened Mahila Seva Mandal to spread awareness among women of their rights.
A total of 18 schools were established and teaching children from different castes and education of girls was furthered by their efforts. A care centre, Bal Hatya Pratibandhak Griha, for pregnant rape victims was also opened to help them deliver and save their children.
Other than being a teacher, a reformer and a strong opposer of the caste system, she was also a prolific poet and writer. At the age of 23, in 1854, she published Kavya Phule and Bavan Kashi Subodh Ratnakar in 1892, a
