EDUCATION

Page 19
 Education is very important for every child whether
boy or girl. It is sad that some communities still
discriminate against the education of the girl child.
 Girl’s education is the need of the hour. Without
educating the girls of the country we can't hope for a
developed nation.
 Girls education is like sowing the seed which gives rise
to green, cheerful, and full grown family plant.
 It is said that if we educate a man, we educate a man
only, but if we educate a woman, we educate the whole
family. This highlights the importance of female
education.

IMPORTANCE OF GIRL’S
EDUCATION
 EDUCATED FUTURE GENERATIONS :
• By sending a girl to school, she is far more
• likely to ensure that her children also receive
• an education.
 DECREASE INFANT MORALITY :
• Children of educated women are less likely to
• die before their first birthday. Primary
• education alone helps reduce infant mortality
• significantly, and secondary education helps
• even more.

Page 21

 DECREASE MATERNAL MORALITY :
 Educated women (with greater knowledge of health
care and fewer pregnancies) are less likely to die
during pregnancy,
 DECREASE CHILD MARRIAGE :
 Child marriage almost always results in the end of a
girl’s schooling.
 The result is illiterate or barely literate young
mothers without adequate tools to build healthy,
educated families.
 DECREASE POPULATION EXPLOSION :
 Educated women tend to have fewer (and healthier)
babies.

Page 22
CONTD.
 INCREASE INVOLMENT IN POLITICAL PROCESS :
• Educated women are more likely to participate in political discussions, meetings, and
decision-making, which in turn promotes a more representative, effective government.
 DECREASE DOMESTIC AND SEXUAL VIOLENCE :
• Educated girls and women are less likely to be victims of domestic and sexual violence or
to tolerate it in their families.
 DECREASE SUPPORT FOR MILITANCY :
• As women become more educated, they are less likely to support militancy and terrorism
than similarly educated men.
 IMPROVE SOCIO-ECONOMIC GROWTH :
• Educated women have a greater chance of escaping poverty, leading healthier and more
productive lives, and raising the standard of living for their children, families, and
communities.

Page 23
BARRIERS IN EDUCATION
 Indifference in attitudes and practices against girl child
including their health and well being.
 Illiterate parents and guardians have little awareness of
the importance of education, particularly for girl children.
 Financial constrains of various types interfere in the
education.
 No parental support
 Discrimination on various basis like caste religion etc.
 Lack of aspiration as only professional options are the
traditional one’s which don’t require education.

ESSENTIAL STEPS TO BE TAKEN
 Low-cost and flexible timetables :
Basic education should be free or cost very little. Also,
school hours
should be flexible so children can help at home and still
attend
classes.
 Schools close to home :
Many parents worry about girls travelling long distances
on their
own.
 Parents and community need to be fully convinced of the
importance of education and motivated to send their
children,particularly their daughters to school.
 Providing women with literacy and vocational training for
income generation.
 Community leaders and extant groups should fully and
actively support this cause.

GOVERNMENT’S STEPS TOWARDS GIRLS
EDUCATION
 The government of India has initiated various programs and
policies to ensure that a girl does not miss out any opportunity of
getting education.
 In the year 1964, the Education Commission was set up, which
largely talked about focusing on educating the girl child.
 The government has undertaken to provide this education free of
cost and make it compulsory for those in that age group. This
undertaking is more widely known as Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan
(SSA).
The major schemes of SSA are :
1. Mahila Samakhya Programme
2. Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya Scheme(KGBV)
3. National Programme for Education of Girls at Elementary Level
(NPEGEL)

CONCLUSION
 Women represent half the world’s population, and gender inequality
exists in every nation on the planet. Until women are given the same
opportunities that men are, entire societies will be destined to perform
below their true potentials .The greatest need of the hour is change of
social attitude to women.
 “When women move forward the family moves, the village moves and
the nation moves”.
 It is essential as their thought & their value systems lead the
development of a good family, good society & ultimately a good
nation”.
 Educated girls can brighten the future of their country by the good
upbringing of their children. Education gives a woman freedom of
thought. It broadens her outlook and makes her aware of her duties and
responsibilities.
 The progress of a country depends on girls’ education. So, girls’
education should be encouraged.
