The document discusses challenges in achieving universal elementary education in India. Key challenges include: the government's policy being based on idealism rather than practicality; administration of education being ineffective at local levels; lack of adequate funding for schools; shortage of trained teachers, especially in rural areas; insufficient school buildings; unsuitable curriculum; high rates of student wastage and stagnation; and social evils like child marriage and untouchability that deprive children of education. Overcoming these hurdles is necessary to fulfill India's constitutional mandate of free and compulsory education for all children until age 14.
The document discusses the history and current state of female education in India. It notes that historically India has had very low rates of female literacy due to societal biases that viewed women's roles as limited to the home. Over time, various programs and initiatives have sought to improve access to education for girls and women, including the Wood's Dispatch program in 1854, the establishment of the national committee on women's education in 1958, and the 86th Constitutional Amendment in 2002 guaranteeing free elementary education. However, challenges remain around infrastructure, resources, and societal attitudes that still discourage female education in some areas and families. Overall access to and quality of female education in India has increased but still needs further progress.
This project aims to improve primary education in 2 districts in western Jharkhand, India. It will work in 80 schools over 3 years to help children achieve grade-appropriate learning levels in language and math. Key strategies include strengthening teachers' capacity for child-friendly teaching methods, and increasing community involvement in school governance. The project will provide trained volunteers, teaching materials, and capacity building for 800 teachers and School Management Committee members. Baseline studies have begun to assess learning levels, teaching quality, and community participation to guide the project. An estimated 7,000 children will benefit from improved education opportunities.
Education is an instrument which is needed to move us towards a sustainable & ecological future.
There is a need to re-evaluate & re-learn different ways of how we work within the world & how we interact & relate to it with each other. To achieve any of this, we need to educate our self.

OVERVIEW OF THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM IN PAKISTAN
EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM OF PAKISTAN
PROBLEMS IN EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM OF PAKISTAN
SOLUTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
CONCLUSION
Educational System in Pakistan has several levels but faces significant problems. It has primary, elementary, secondary, higher secondary, higher, and technical vocational levels. However, the system suffers from low funding allocation and corruption. It also struggles with gender discrimination, lack of technical education, poverty, inefficient teachers, and infrastructure issues. To address these problems, solutions such as increasing education funding, improving teacher quality, enhancing technical education, and ensuring equal access for both genders are needed.

(1) Universalization of elementary education has been a national goal in India since independence to provide free and compulsory education to children aged 6-14. (2) Key aspects of universalization include universal provision of schools, universal enrollment of students, universal retention of students in schools until age 14, universal participation of communities, and universal achievement of learning outcomes. (3) Programs like Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan aim to achieve this goal through community ownership of schools, focusing on quality education for all children by 2010. However, challenges remain like inadequate funding, shortage of trained teachers, and lack of school infrastructure in all areas.
The document discusses ways to enhance the quality of primary education in India. It notes that additional teaching resources could help build a more effective remedial learning system and reduce class sizes. Private school enrollment is increasing due to fiscal constraints facing public schools. The document also describes a successful primary education enhancement project in Maharashtra that improved school participation, retention, and quality, with outcomes like reduced dropout rates.
The study aimed to understand the problems facing out-of-school youth in Matnog, Sorsogon. It involved surveying 30 out-of-school youth using a questionnaire. The findings showed that 18 respondents attained secondary education, 6 were employed, and 4 attained tertiary education. The highest cost of education was reported as the major factor for respondents dropping out of school, followed by lack of regular transportation. Most respondents expressed willingness to continue their studies through the Department of Education's Alternative Learning System program. The study provides insight into how to help address the needs of out-of-school youth through education programs.
The document discusses several issues and challenges facing the Indian education system. It notes that the government education system suffers from insufficient funding, weak infrastructure, lack of teachers and resources particularly in rural areas. As a result, the quality of education provided is poor. It also discusses high dropout rates, lack of practical skills training, neglect of Indian languages, costly higher education, and brain drain as major problems. Several reforms are needed in the areas of governance, infrastructure, teacher quality, and curriculum to overcome these challenges and improve access to quality education for all Indians.
1. The document discusses India's new National Education Policy (NEP) of 2020 and outlines some of the key challenges it aims to address in the country's education system.
2. It notes that only half of Indian children currently have access to education and outlines various statistics on literacy rates, school attendance, and dropout rates.
3. The NEP proposes major reforms across early childhood, school, and higher education including universalizing access, implementing a new curriculum structure, increasing the focus on skills and vocational education, and using technology to improve access and quality of education.
The document discusses the current state of education in India and ways to improve its quality. It notes that while access to education has increased, the quality remains low. Rural school education especially suffers from poor infrastructure, untrained teachers, and low learning outcomes. Several reforms are suggested such as improving teacher training, increasing vocational education, using technology in teaching, and rewarding creativity over rote learning. Overall, the education system needs widespread reforms to enhance quality and make students employable.
Spandan represents a solution to enhance primary education in India. The document discusses that while India has achieved success in many areas, the quality of elementary education remains poor, especially for rural populations and women. It identifies several problems with the current system such as teachers having non-academic workloads, limited opportunities for teacher growth, and curriculum that is not developmentally appropriate. The proposed solution is to place trained early childhood personnel in primary schools, provide scholarships based on performance and economic need rather than caste, reduce rigid teaching methods, make the environment more interactive, increase public awareness of education policies, and nurture at-risk students.

4. “PRIMARY EDUCATION IN RURAL INDIA”
In recent years India has made significant progress on access to schooling and enrolment rates
in primary education but dropout rates and low levels of learning remain challenges for the
state and central government and also it’s a major challenge for the government to improve the
quality of education in rural India.
when we talk about the primary education in rural India a large Majority of people still lives
in villages and so the topic of rural education in India is of utmost importance. A survey named
called the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER), shows that even though the number of
rural students attending schools is rising, but more than half of the students in fifth grade are
unable to read a second-grade text book and are not able to solve simple mathematical
problems. Not only this, the level of maths and reading is further declining and even the
students studying in 5th class are not able to write their names properly.
Quality and access to education is the major concern in rural schools as there are fewer
committed teachers, lack of proper text books and learning material in the schools. Though
Government schools exist, but when compared to private schools then quality is a major issue.
5. Majority of people living in villages have understood the importance of education and know
that it is the only way to get rid of poverty. But due to lack of money they are not able to send
their children to private schools and hence depend upon government schools for education
but what we see in some of the government schools is there only one teacher for the entire
school and there is not proper facilities for the students as compared to the private schools
and one another issue is that
Every village is not provided with school which means that students have to go to another
village to get education and it also creates problem and usually do not send their daughters to
school, leading to a failure in achieving rural education in India
Poverty is another setback. Government schools are not as good and private schools are
expensive. This results in a very low number of students actually clearing their secondary
education and taking admission in a college for further studies. So, the drop-out-rate at the
secondary level is extremely high in villages.
6. “SARVA SHIKSHA ABHIYAN”
As I do this project report under sarva shiksha abhiyan so here is all about sarva shiksha
abhiyan. It is an Indian government programme launched by former Prime minister Atal Bihari
Vajpayee in the year 2002.
The main aim of this programme is to educate India and provide them free and compulsory
education to the children lying between the age group of 6 to 14 years in government schools.
After this scheme the number of primary schools in rural india has increases significantally and
the enrolment percentages of students also increases. A report from UNESCO institute states
that overall enrolment percentage went up from 73.7% in 2000 to 97.5% currently and even
the enrolment rate of female children also went up from 67.43% to 91.6% currently.
But these students only get enrolled in schools but they or parents are not very much concern about
studies.one major thing that helps in increasing these rates is is due to the launch of Mid-Day meal
and giving them some sort of amount in the form of scholarship.
It’s a great initiative by the government but somewhere government has to work a lot on this project as
some of negativity of this programme is that most of these schools constructed under this programme
do not have basic amenities like drinking water, toilets for boys and girls, benches/desks, proper
blackboards etc.And even most of the classes are given under tree-shade.
Even the teacher to the student ratio has gone down from 40 to 32 during the same period and
even in many schools there is only one teacher taking all the classes from 1 to 5. Attendance
of these teachers are also very low. Qualifications and educational background of the teachers
recruited under this scheme is also questionable.
In short this scheme is a great initiative by the government but the quality of education received
there is far below the standard. This programme has to be revised, reframed and implemented
honestly as it helps those poor parents who aren’t able to educate their childrens in private
schools.
7. “Objectives of community development report”
The very basis objective of this project is that every child I meet should secure their future
in life and some other major objectives are listed below
1.To provide education in free of cost to all the children lying between the age group of 6-14 years
2.all the student must complete their primary education even they aren’t able to afford it.
3. it’s also gives equal opportunity to the female child to attend their schooling and complete their
basis education.
4.To realize the importance of Early Childhood Care and education and looks at th complete
0-14 age as a continuum
5. Develop skills in group work, collaboration, conflict management and importance of
building friendships.
6.To make them aware of the importance of education and helps in securing their future
and also makes their parents aware what’s the role of education who are illiterate.
7.To end the social gap between the poor and rich as of this even the poorest section of
the society are also able to educate their child.
8.To inculcate value-based learning that allows children an opportunity to work for each other’s
well being rather than to permit mere selfish pursuits.
9.To allow children to learn about and master their natural environment in order to develop
their potential both spiritually and materially.
10. And above all, the future of india depends upon their children so it’s important to educate
them as any one from the society have the talent to do something big or great in his life And to
make them aware of their hidden potential and to know about their talent.
8. “Need of educating rural india Or,need of primary education in rural india”
All the students either they are from urban or rural India have equal opportunity to meet their
dreams but unfortunately it’s too tough to achieve. Many children face challenges in achieving
their dream due to many of the facts like due to poverty, their gender, family instability, and
poor environmental conditions, religion caste and their socio-economic class.
And somewhere the government look at these problems and launched the scheme of Sarva
Shiksha Abhiyan so that every single child from any part of the country or of any family
background are able to get the opportunity to be educated and learn the first initial stage of
education.
The basic need of this project is to identifies the issues related with educating the rural child
and help them and their parents to know the importance of education and also encourages them
in learning new skills and also make them aware of swatch bharat abhiyan.and other
government programmes.
9. “Scope of this project work”
And when we talk about the scope of this project we all know that India has the largest
education system in the world after China. However, issues of quality education and access remain
Challenges in some parts of the country and even the recruitment process and the quality of teacher
provided in the rural schools are also questionable but instead of the program like sarvya shiksha
abhiyan can help even the poorest child to do something In his life and make them aware towards the
importance of education.
the main aim of this project (sarvya shiksha abhiyan ) is to
• increase the literacy rate of india
• to secure the future of india so that they can compete with other Nations.
• To provide them better standard of living
• education is the only way to get rid of poverty so its also important for the poor section
of the society.
• to make them aware of their hidden potential to do something in their life
• provide them initial stage of learning skills
• to make them aware of their rights provided by the government so they can also be
aware that they can’t be discriminated on the basis of their
gender,religion,caste,colour,greed.
10. “Functional process/ Methodology adopted for CDP”
when I got this opportunity to do this project during my summer internship I visited my village in Bihar
from 1st
June to 15th
July 2018 and choose the programme to work with the primary schools and want
to know about the facts related with educating the rural child.
For this I have visted many primary schools in my villages and meet the students of different classes
from 1 to 5 and even with teachers who were recruited in these schools and also interacted with their
parents.
I ensure that each and every child whom I meet can able to understand the importance of education in
these days and help them to teach some of their class topics and even do some of the play activities with
them.
When I visited these schools what I found is that in most of the schools even there are not proper
drinking water facilities or even the separate toilet for girls and boys which are called the basis necessity
of any school. Other major issue what I found in these schools are that there is no proper classrooms
allocated for each class from 1st
to 5th
standard, they mixup the students of different classes in a single
room and taught them.
The other thing I noticed is that in the classrooms there is no proper bench and desk provided to the
students to seat and attend their classes. The students came with a mat from their home seat on the
ground and attend their classes.Just think about that how much they have to suffer while attending their
class.
11. “The functions what I performed during my CDP report”
Interact with the teachers and students:
I interacted with the students and help them to understand some of their topics related to their subject
and also about the importance of education and also interacted with the teachers and ask them about
poor quality of education in their respective schools and also help the students in learning new skills.
12. Interaction with parents:
During interaction with the parents I asked them about the quality of education being provided by the
teacher or school and while I meeting them I found many of the parents are illiterate but they understand
the importance of education and want their children to be educated so that they can do something better
than themselves. They also said that they don’t have so much of the money to send their children to
private school so they are very much depended on the the government schools and government
educational scheme.
13. Do some play activities with the children:
In my visit to various schools during my project I also done some of the educational play activities like
drawing,singing,role play so that they even enjoy while studying and learnt some skills that can even
help them in future.while meeting them what I found is some of them have great vocals and some of
them also make also make a great piece of art while drawing.
14. Make them aware about swach bharat abhiyan and do some activities based on this:
Swachh bahrat abhiyan:
It is a campaign launched by our current prime minister Narendra Modi on 2nd
of October 2014 with
an aim to make India clean. Aim is to provide sanitation facilities to every family, including
toilets, solid and liquid waste disposal systems, village cleanliness, and safe and adequate
drinking water supply by 2nd October 2019. It will be a befitting tribute to the Father of the
Nation on his 150th birth anniversary. It is significant that the PM himself is taking very
proactive role in making the campaign a success.
While visiting these schools I insure that students should also aware of this programme and
help in making India clean and do various activities related with this and so that they even
make their parents and society aware of this and help in making India clean.
15. Visit some of the anganwadi kendra located in my village:
Well my report is all about primary education in rural india but I have also visited some of
the anganwangadi kendra to know the work of these small kids school and I think its very
issential for any child as It is a part of the Indian public health care system and called as the rural
mother and child care center in india
The main functioning of these school is to provide Basic health care activities include contraceptive
counseling and supply, nutrition education and supplementation, as well as pre-school activities.
16.
17. Presentation of facts and figures.
Primary school enrolment in India has been a success story, largely due to various programs
and drives to increase enrolment even in remote areas. With enrolment reaching at least 96
percent since 2009, and girls making up 56 percent of new students between 2007 and 2017,
it is clear that many problems of access to schooling have been addressed. Improvements to
infrastructure have been a priority to achieve this and India now has 1.4 million schools and
7.7 million teachers so that 98 percent of habitations have a primary school (class I-V) within
one kilometre and 92 percent have an upper primary school (class VI-VIII) within a three-
kilometres walking distance.

18. data showing the literacy rate of india state wise :
The chart shows that the worst literacy rate is of the Bihar while the highest literacy rate is of
Kerla. To improve this this we must have to focus on primary education in rural areas.
19. The very first alphabet “A”
This child is not able to write even the first letter of the alphabet and it give me a great happiness to
teach her
Sleeping education of india
This shows what the reality of our
education system in rural areas even
the students are more interested to
learn but the teacher is busy in
sleeping.
20. Conclusion
I would like to thank lovely professional university for giving me such a great opportunity to work on
the platform where I can do something for the betterment of the society and it also help me in to explore
myself and to learn something which is not possible to learn just of my course.
From this project I also came to learn so many things on which we are lacking behind which
also stops our development that’s why we are so far from other countries too.It’s a great
inititiative by our university that they give attention to this topic and make us to do some field work so
that we can learn some practical knowledge
While doing this project I visited my village which is located in bihar and it help me to know the exact
problem associated with the rural india and education system of india. also make me aware about the
real problems they are facing like proper sanitation,drinking water,poverty and even discrimination
based on their caste,religion,colour.
I would also like to thank the government for introducing some of the programmes like Sarvya Shiksha
Abvhiyan,Child development programmes like angawandi etc.but somewere government has to be very
much concern about these programmes as reality is this that these initiatives are not giving their 100%
on ground level.
21. Executive summary
