| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | After seventy years of independence, the tragic reality is that the schools we attend and the quality of education we receive are influenced by our identity; who we are, where we live, how much we earn and our gender.<br/>In inside Indian schools: The enigma of equity and quality; Vimala Ramachandran explores the contours of a school system that is facing a crisis of legitimacy. While India aspires to March towards a knowledge-driven society and economy, millions of young people are left behind. Those who can afford March out of government schools only realize that the private schools (barring the elite schools) are no better. The schools they attend leaves them with little knowledge or skill, very low self-esteem and a bleak future.<br/>The inequalities in the larger society are reflected in the school system, and the elite schools to which the majority of the children have no access, stand apart from the rest. The book argues that the struggle for equality in education, in all schools, is ultimately a struggle for quality, both being two sides of the same Coin. |
