The Indian education system provides education through public and private sectors, with administration at the central, state, and local levels. Primary education between ages 6-14 is compulsory and free. Historically, India had a Gurukula system with close student-teacher relationships and nature-linked learning. The modern system introduced by the British focused on "modern" subjects in classrooms. Primary school goes from standards 1-5, upper primary from 6-8. Secondary school has a lower division from 9-10 and upper division from 11-12. Overall, India has made progress in education access but still faces challenges in quality and infrastructure.
