There have
always been a classy debate about privatizing our Indian Education System where
the people belonging to group of poverty line deny the Right To Education to
their own children so that they can act as a mediator in earning “Bread For
living” on the other hand privatizing the whole Education System would not only
handicap the literacy rate among the children but will also retard them
socially as well because the good behavior is learnt in school only. The Education
System provided by Government comes with lot of services like Mid Day Meal
Programme, School Health Programme etc.so thus helps the student from
Government studying school to come to school regularly improves literacy rate
and also helps in improving the health status too.
But as
every coin has two sides so is the dilemma -the students of Government school
tend to be more negligent when it comes to Education as the family is not
paying for it, so the conscience to study or quench to study and gain
knowledge is practically less .Mostly these respective students come to school
due to the services provided by the Government or just have a primary Education
so that they can categorize them as 'Literates' but beyond that it is like
'Beating about the Bush'
And thus
the privatization comes into role in this -As Privatization has its own
Benefits as well like -In Private Education as the people are paying huge
amount so that the students studying in these respective sectors have an
excellent standard in all the phase of personality which includes nourishing
the talents of individuals, improvement in communication skills etc. In certain
places, a code of ethics is maintained For eg- In some private schools its
adamant to speak in English, so that the communication skill develop in early
age. Privatization improves the Education System by concentrating on knowledge
oriented subjects rather than on mere literacy rate, thus improving and
increasing standard ,communication skill etc but the disadvantage is that the
expenditure increases and at times its difficult for certain families to live
up to financial demands of this sector!!!
But in
the end its always the individual choices when it comes to the
schooling of student in Government or Private Sector but the only truth that
follows this is -privatization can run parallel to Government Sector but
can never intersect or replace it....
