PRIVATE EDUCATION

PRIVATE EDUCATION HAS HUGE OPPORTUNITY IN INDIA SINCE THE PUBLIC SYSTEM IS NOT MEETING THE DEMANDS OF PARENTS. THERE IS NO ACCOUNTABILITY AND MOST OF THE SCHOOLS ARE IN REGIONAL LANGUAGES , WHEREAS PARENTS WAN THERE CHILDREN TO BE TAUGHT IN ENGLISH. HOWEVER, TRYING TO START A SCHOOL IN INDIA IS A NIGHTMARE AS THERE IS A LOT OF RED TAPE. WHILE SOME OF THE REGULATIONS ARE NECESSARY , A FAR LIGHTER TOUCH WOULD BE BETTER. MANY PRIVATE SCHOOLS OFFER BETTER EDUCATION THAN GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS , MAY BE AT LITTLE MORE OF COST . VERY FEW GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS HAVE SHOWN BETTER EDUCATIONAL SUCCESS / FOR AN EXAMPLE IN TAMIL NADU NUMBER OF STUDENTS FROM GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS ENTERING MEDICAL EDUCATION (MBBS) IS ALMOST NIL / SO WHILE COMPETITION WILL ENSURE THAT QUALITY IS MAINTAINED , THE GOVERNMENT CAN ALSO TIE UP WITH AN INDEPENDENT BODY TO CREATE RATINGS SYSTEMS FOR SCHOOLS / WHICH WILL ENABLE THE PARENTS TO TAKE A RIGHT CAREER DECISION FOR THERE CHILDREN
