Education Systems 2.

Hello readers

The secret of education is respecting the pupil.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson.

This image was taken in a temple which is located in a posh locality in Bengaluru. First of all this is something which is very unfortunate. From this picture one can understand what the real meaning of the word “VALUE” is, and this is what you get to see in many of the places in India. Why are people acting blind when they can see how small kids are struggling to learn? Why can’t something be done to these kids and many more who are hungry for education?

They are the future who would lead this country. The Government and the private organizations should join hands and must work for the betterment of the poor. 

There should also be the congress of youngsters like us and many more who are willing to help and make this education system a better one.

Hope you guys are doing fine. Well in the month of March we had written a blog covering the education systems around the world and also India, we would like to continue on this topic today.

So in our initial blog regarding this topic we spoke about ,some famous education models around the world ,and then we looked at the Indian model ,identified some concerns ,and suggested some solutions too, and we would like to thank all the people who took time out of their busy schedule to read our blog and also commented their views.

Moving on ,If we just start at where we left last time ,The Government needs to take cognitive steps to solve this critical problem of India ,just think we are in the 21st century and ,we are still trying to climb up a weak and trembling ladder to increase our literacy rates come on, is that even fare ?

We are sure if the intellects in the Governments, put their thinking caps on ,the issue can be solved at the earliest.

So what are some of the prominent issues the students face? In the present education system:

Firstly, the money matter, yes it is definitely a concern. People with money have the privilege to attend great schools but the ones who are no so rich, well we know what happens to them.

The solution is already there, yes of course we are talking about the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, which is a great scheme announced by the government, but the only issue is how much of this plan is applied and followed?

So the issue actually is that we have great intellects in the system, which have great plans to make this a grand success story but we fail at the implementation part.

If we look at the private educational institutions they haunt the parents using the word donation. No doubt that the private institutions too need money, as they are not running a charity. But how many of them can really afford is the big question. The rich definitely be able to afford huge amounts without any tussle, but the poor definitely can’t. The private institutions  .

If we  look at an action plan for the next 5 years we can start by adopting the “graduation” model of the US a mentioned in our 1st part .

To conclude nothing is impossible if we have the mind to change the situation and make the best out of the worst situation. We feel we are on the right track till we reach the station of implementation after which the trains of implementation are getting derailed!
