Education System in India

The availability of skilled manpower to sustain the explosive growth appears to one of the key challenges at present situation. The skill set that is being developed by the current education system in India is considered inadequate. The educational system in India does not teach practical aspects of how to do work and stuff like that. It is very bookish.

We develop people who do not have ability to imagine who do not have ability to create a big picture in their mind and then try to figure out where they fit in. We also do not create people who are more globally oriented. We create people who are more locally oriented, who do not seem to have the framework of working in a global environment.

My views to create a skilled workforce are follows,

-A standardized national curriculum

-No discrimination whatsoever of any kind in schools and colleges.

-Compulsory and universal free education for all children in the age group of six to 14

-Necessary number of schools must be built in all communities

-Private schools must reserve 25% percent of their seats for the disadvantaged

-Norms and standards for all schools (Government and private) including teacher qualifications, which out which no schools will be recognized

-Exposure to practical knowledge than full of theoretical knowledge.

-Public, Private organizations and Government should join hands to prevent childlabour and create a healthy workforce in India.
