Speech on current education system
Answers
Answer:
Welcome to the speech ceremony of today. The speech topic for today is the Indian Education System. I, Sakshi Kalra, am your host for today and believe that you all have got to say something since we all are a product of this system. There are some positives as well as some negatives too. The importance of education can never be undermined for in the words of Lord Brougham, “Education makes people easy to lead, but difficult to drive, easy to govern, but impossible to enslave”. This statement holds so true because in the absence of education a man is just reduced to an animal-like existence.
Have you ever seen a flock of sheep? How it is herded and needed to be taken care of? Likewise, a man without education can be compared to a flock of sheep which can only be herded. Education is really important to civilize a man and help him think rationally otherwise he will be reduced to a mere savage. Do you know from where the word education is derived? It is taken from the Latin word, which means to “draw out”. True education therefore implies honing our mental faculties which are so important for leading a meaningful existence.
However, there are several lapses in our education system so let us know what needs to be changed in it. Since the beginning there have been quite a lot of inconsistencies or flaws in our education system and until this time we have not been able to cleanse our education system of these inconsistencies. In fact, Rabindranath Tagore once wrote a long article about how the education system in India can be ameliorated. Only a few changes have been observed since the colonial era. Many IIMs, IITs, law schools and other learning centers of excellence have been opened up where students are able to score 90% marks so much so that even students with more than 90 percent of marks are finding it so difficult to get admission in a good college and most importantly in the colleges of their choice.
Sadly, rote learning is still prevalent in our system where students study just to fair well in exams and sometimes to clear such exams like AIIMS, IIT JEE or CLAT. The Britishers founded education system in our country with a view to create civil servants and clerks and more or less the pattern is still the same. The students prepare for bank exams, civil service exams and even to get into a good engineering or medical college. We still have good learning centers, schools and colleges but their numbers are still less in comparison to thousands of mediocre or unaffiliated educational institutes which are just money making businesses and spoiling the lives of many students.
Concrete measures are required to be taken in order to improve our education system so that students enjoy in their entire journey of learning and do not consider it as a sheer burden.
Cheers Friends!
