FEATURES OF SECONDARY EDUCATION: # Secondary education has a very strategic position in the educational system of India. It is the bridge between primary education and higher education. The importance of Secondary Education is:
1.) To make the students all-rounders in understanding the important branches of knowledge.
2.) To train India's students to be good citizens who will contribute to the country's social and economic development and to maintain the democratic spirit of India.

# For the successful implementation of any program, it is essential to have efficient administration and management, not only would this ensure proper implementation, but also help in achieving the goal of the program. In our country, the school administration, especially the secondary and senior secondary school, falls under the following three heads.
*Central level
*State level
*Local level
# Over the years, schools established by philanthropic individuals and institutions have continued to thrive with state recognition through grant-in-aid policy. In India, educational institutions are operated through the government, grant-in-aid to private agencies, private organizations or by minorities. Thus, there are four forms of educational management in India:
a) Publicly managed and funded (e.g. government primary schools)
b) Publicly managed, but publicly and privately funded (e.g. government secondary schools)
c) Privately managed but publicly funded (e.g. government aided schools and colleges). Government aided schools are charitable trust run schools that receive partial funding from the government e.g. DAV College d) Privately managed and funded (e.g. unaided schools and colleges) e.g. The Doon School, Delhi Public School
HIERARCHY TO REACH SECONDARY EDUCATION: Secondary Education plays a vital role in the education of the community.
Schools providing secondary education were not prevalent in ancient and medieval India.
Schools providing secondary education or expansion of secondary education in India were initially started by the British and after that by those who promoted Indian education.

philanthropic individuals and institutions
have continued to thrive with state
recognition through grant-in-aid policy. In
India, educational institutions are operated
through the government, grant-in-aid to
private agencies, private organizations or by
minorities. Thus, there are four forms of
educational management in India:
a) Publicly managed and funded (e.g.
government primary schools)
b) Publicly managed, but publicly and
privately funded (e.g. government
secondary schools)
c) Privately managed but publicly funded
(e.g. government aided schools and
colleges). Government aided schools are
charitable trust run schools that receive
partial funding from the government e.g.
