Question

state any three initiative taken by the government to improve elementary condition of education of India

Answer 1

There has been increasing attention to the expansion of education. A government launched scheme, Sarva Shiksa Abhiyan (SSA) has attracted increased resources and attention to the elementary sector. Enrolments in primary school have increased substantially. But recent research  on absenteeism, learning achievement, and the expansion of private 
schooling suggests that all is not entirely well with basic education in India. 

A Supreme Court judgement declared education to be a fundamental right for children upto 14 years of age.


 A pension scheme has been launched for contractual teachers and revival of 56 teachers training institutes has been undertaken, besides orientation and training programmes for teachers, in Bihar.

There is a  Centrally Sponsored Program of Nutritional Support to Primary Education or Mid Day Meal Scheme.

The government launched the National Literacy Mission for providing functional literacy to the non-literates between the age group of 15 and 35. 

The Indian Institutes of Technology and Indian Institutes of Management has been upgraded.


 These are initiatives taken by the government. But they only improve access to education. There is still the other thing called going to school in the first place.
