History of Education In INDIAEarlier in India The formal

admission ceremony was known as 'Upanayana‘.

With the accomplishment of this ceremony the child had to leave his home for the ‘Ashrama' where he would receive education.

Sanskrit was the language of teaching.

The academies of higher learning were known as 'Parisads'. The education system involved of three basic processes, which included –

Sravana Manana Nidhyasana'

Sravana

In the 'Sravana' stage of education, students received 'shrutis' knowledge, which was passed orally from one generation to another..

Manana

The second stage was 'Manana' which means that pupils had to think themselves about what they have heard. They have to make their own inferences and assimilate the lesson taught by their teacher into the life.

Nidhyasana The third stage

'Nidhyasana' means complete comprehension of truth and its use in the life.

Today education system in India can be divided into many stages

Pre- Primary. Primary. Middle. Secondary. Higher Secondary. Undergraduate. Postgraduate.

Education Governing Bodies. The Central Board of Secondary

Education (CBSE). The Council of Indian School

Certificate Examination (CISCE). The State Government Boards. The National Open School. The International School.

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE)

This is the main governing body of education system in India. It has control over the central education system. It conducts exam and looks after the functioning of schools accredited to central education system.

The Council of Indian School Certificate Examination (CISCE)

It is a board for Anglo Indian Studies in India. It conducts two examinations 'Indian Certificate of Secondary Education' and 'Indian School Certificate'. Indian Certificate of secondary education is a k-10 examination for those Indian students who have just completed class 10th and Indian school certificate is a k-12 public examination conducted for those studying in class 12th.

The State Government Boards

Apart from CBSE and CISCE each state in India has its own State Board of education, which looks after the educational issues.

The National Open School

It is also known as National Institute of Open Schooling. It was established by the Government Of India in 1989. It is a ray of hope for those students who cannot attend formal schools.

The International School

It controls the schools,

which are accredited to

curriculum of

international standard.

Other Educational programs In India

Elementary Education. Sarva Siksha Abhiyan (SSA). District Primary Education Program. Operation Blackboard. National Bal Bhavan.

Elementary Education

According to the Constitution of India, elementary education is a fundamental right of children in the age group of 6-14 years. India has about 688,000 primary schools and 110,000 secondary schools.

Sarva Siksha Abhiyan (SSA)

The main goal of this program is that all children of 6-11 years of age should complete primary education by the year 2007 and all children of 6-14 years of age should complete eight years of schooling by 2010. This plan covers the whole country with special emphasis on girl education

The SSA centers are mainly opened in those areas, which do not have any school or where schools are very far off. Special girl oriented programs include:

Girl education at elementary level. National Program for Education of Girls at

Elementary Level (NPEGEL). Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV). Mahila Samakhya Scheme.

District Primary Education Program

It aims that the primary education should be accessible to each and every child of school going age, once a child is enrolled in school he/ she should be retained there. The final step is achievement of the goal of education.

The main components of District Primary Education Program are:

Construction of classrooms and new schools

Opening of non-formal schooling centers Setting up early childhood education

centers. Appointment of teachers. Providing education to disabled children.

Operation Blackboard

It was started in 1987-88. The aim of this program is to improve human and physical resource availability in primary schools of India. According to this program every primary school should have at least two rooms, two teachers and essential teaching aids like blackboard, chalk, duster etc.

National Bal Bhavan The National Bal Bhavan was

opened with the aim of developing overall personalities of children of all strata of society irrespective of their caste, creed, religion and gender. It supplements school education by helping children to learn in play way and natural environment.

Present scenario

We can see the influence of western education every where. The target of educational system is to give.

Higher education is becoming more costly. Especially engineering, Information Technology etc., are every difficult for a middle class person to join.

The present system is not meeting the needs of the youth due to certain political and financial constraints. It is mostly westernized.

At present, education is a business, where every business man is sure can make money. This makes education available to only rich and not to the middle class and the lower class people.

Indian Higher Education Scenario

40 percent of the Indian population is under 18.

According to the National Knowledge Commission (which advises the Prime Minister’s office on higher education) – Out of the Indians between age group 18 to 24 years, only 7 percent enter a university.

The Commission recommends creation of 1,500 colleges and universities over the next several years to roughly double that percentage.

The Commission estimates that 160,000 Indians are studying abroad, spending an estimated $4 billion a year.

Demand Supply gap: 2008 is poised to be another year of high

economic growth for India.

Scarcity of higher education opportunities is a

potential hurdle to economic progress.

There is scarcity of skilled manpower in every

industry, from good carpenters and plumbers to

factory workers, doctors and scientists.

The banking industry, which employs 900,000

people, is expected to add 600,000 more over

the next three to four years.

The IT and IT’S industry will need around 850,000

additional skilled manpower by 2010.

The retail industry will need nearly 2.5 million

skilled professionals by 2012.

India surely needs more universities.

Japan has 4,000 universities for its 127 million

people.

The US has 3,650 universities for its 301 million.

India has only 348 universities for its 1.2 billion

people.

Key Challenges for the Indian Education System

To increase private education. To reduce the child labor. To provide infrastructure facility. To provide well qualified teachers.
