Answer 2

Right to Education Act was implemented from 2010 in order to guarantee the constitutional right enshrined under Article 21A. However, the act has impacted the private schools and the children in a positive as well as negative manner.

Positives-
1)RTE asked the private schools to improve their infrastructure and meet certain standards
2)Reservation of 25% seats for EWGs ensured that children of such people were able to get education

Negatives-
1)The private budget schools (which charge low fee and do not have quality infrastructure) were asked to focus on infrastructure than providing quality education
2)The non-availability of the required infrastructure led to closure of many schools
3)Autonomy of private schools was eroded because they were to act according to the whims of the government
4)The provision of Essential Certificate under RTE act decides the number of schools in a particular area. Government colluded with private schools in some areas and led to closure of other schools
5)Children’s right to have a good quality education was eroded because of absence of schools
6)The closure of budget schools forced the children to opt for government schools where quality education was not
available
7)Some parents also availed of high class private schools in face of closure of budget schools. This made the financial situations difficult and nutritional needs of children were neglected

Government should focus on quality education and should help such private budget schools through financial aid in order to meet the required standards.
