PRIVATE SCHOOL NEED REGULATION
WHY
Global education report -2004 --> India - 106/127 countries in education sphere
India --> 34% illiterates in the world
Large gap between government and private schools --> Private schools charging exploitative fees
Private sector has steeped in to cash in on parental anxiety regrading the state of education
PROBLEMS WITH PRIVATE SCHOOLS
Maximization of profit prompts the owners to emphasize on competition rather than conceptual learning(which needs more time)
No ownership of moral growth and behavior of the child --> calls parents to solve behavioral problems
For academic weakness --> advice private tuition
SOLUTION
Recognize that regulation of schools is a state government domain
No over regulations
Genuine philanthropic private schools should not be stifled
Make sure that schools meet basic academic and operation aspects --> number of teachers, qualification, classrooms, safety
Protect public from exploitative practices
Form independent quasi-judicial school regulatory body
Department of education is regulator and operator of schools --> conflict
As demanded by law --> Schools must not be for profit --> financial audits
Publish fees for 3 years --> no change permitted --> no capping should be done --> its hard to determine cap --> can lead to corruption
Grievance redress system for parents
WAY AHEAD
Best Solution --> Ensure high quality, equitable education delivered through public school system
