STATE OF INDIAS EDUCATION
More rural children enrol in pvt schools
Enrolment in private schools is increasing,but a crisis in the education system seems to be in the making as fewer children at the Class V level can do basic learning tasks like reading Standard II texts and doing simple mathematical sums.
The trend of more children in rural India enrolling in private schools with better infrastructure like toilets,drinking water and midday meals than their government-run counterparts is strengthening.
The prominent findings of the eighth Annual Status of Education Report (ASER 2012) by NGO Pratham show that enrolment in the age group of 6-14 years is at an impressive 96.5% in rural India and private school intakes are rising 10% a year.
If the trend is not reversed or slowed,ASER estimates private school enrolment in rural India could reach 50% by 2018.
The findings seem to confirm a growing lag between even modest private schools and government-run institutions often hamstrung by neglect and low levels of teacher proficiency.
