Education Reforms In India

If we have to make a new India we will have to do reforms in our education system and all these reforms have to start primary to higher education. We will take up reforms from primary to higher level as follows: PRIMARY & SECONDARY EDUCATION The whole educational system should be recast. Instead of 10+2+3, it should be changed to 8+2+2+3. Govt. should make education compulsory up to Std VIII. The examination should be conducted at VIIIth standard level as it was conducted earlier in British Raj and only those who secured good marks in VIIIth standard should be allowed to study in Govt. aided institutions. The rest should be diverted to either unaided Institutes or Vocational Courses. The Govt. should spend on Vocational Institutes of various fields from Taluka level and the present ITI Institute should be merged with these vocational Institutes. The municipal and local authorities are forcing the Management in aided schools to admit 60 to 80 students in a classroom. This practice should be stopped and like in ICSE board, the strength of students in a classroom should be of 30 to 40 students. This will help the Teachers to give personal attention to students and the quality of education will improve. To encourage the school going students in villages, slums & poor students should be given a maturity bond of Rs. 1,000/- up to seventh std. and Rs. 5,000/- for 10th std. studies, and Rs. 10,000/- bond for graduation studies and Rs. 25,000/- bond for post-graduation studies. This bond will automatically help them for higher studies. The state Govt. giving this type of bond should get separate subsidy from the central Govt. This facility should be available to all weaker students of the society whose parent’s income is less than national average income or those who are below the poverty line.
