Description
The "India Education Report" attempts to capture the current scenario of basic education in India. The report, which consists of a series of critical reviews, presents an analytical overview of the situation in both quantitative and qualitative terms, identifying current policies, programmes and issues characterizing different aspects of basic education in India. The review was carried out in the context of the Global Conference held in Dakar in the early part of 2000 where India, along with other Heads of States, renewed its commitment to the goal of providing quality basic education for all by the year 2015. It is more than 50 years since the Indian constitution made a commitment to provide free and compulsory education for all up to the age of 14. In India's not-so-smooth journey towards this goal of universal elementary education, the National Policy on Education (1996), which initiated a number of schemes and programmes at the national level, stands out as a significant landmark. The 1990s saw the opening of the primary education scene to external assistance on a fairly large scale.
