During the British rule in India British were in the requirement of manpower which is educated in English to carry on various clerical works in India. To implement the western education system in India British followed the “Downward Filtration Theory”.
Literally filtration means coming of something from the top to bottom.
Downard filtration in education means coming down of Education from Top to bottom ie from the higher class of the people to the common people.
Why english adopted Downward filtration Theory of education in India?
Following reasons are sited for adoption of this theory-
1. Because of the narrow mindedness of english who wants to educate a few for getting clerks for administration.
2. They wanted to create a elite group by differentiating the education initially so that general public will get influenced by this elite group and they will accept the British rule which will help British in running their administration smoothly though social acceptance.
3. As their will be social acceptance of English education system as a product of glamorization through higher class people will start adopting English as as education and it will help British. They have also thought that educated higher class people will undertake the responsibility of educating the genral public.
Lord Macauly explained the same by observing that “The aim of education in India was to anglicize the Indian through English Education and to make black coloured English who will look like Indian but will be English by soul, character, Language and action (English in Indian Skin). Unfortunatly this trend follows still after 70 years of so called freedom from english.
English have gone back to England but they have left the people who they had produced through Downward Filtration Theory to rule India.
Effects of Downward filtration theory-
People of higher class were recruited to English posts and some of them were introduced in higher administration as well.People came to know about various happening about the world in 18th and 19th century. They came to know about various freedom movement of USA and France, given a sense of freedom from British.Spreading of education was done by various Christian Missionaries, they could influence only the people of lower class and most of the people were unaffected by missionaries.Somewhere it boosted renaissance in India through various organization like Brahma Samaj by Raja Ram Mohan Rai.
