Explanation:

If we look into the early history of Indian (Hindu) society, we find that in ancient India education was modelled on the gurukula system in which emphasis was placed on the direct relationship between the guru (teacher) and the sisya (pupil).

This system of education laid emphasis on austere life and concentrated on the teaching of Vedic literature. It was mainly devoted to the teaching of theology, philosophy and philology. Education was all compre­hensive spreading from philosophy and spirituality to the teaching of cannons of art of day-to-day life.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

Education was used to be given on the varna basis. The Sudras and women both were excluded from the right to education. Vocational trainings, if any, were used to be given by old members of the family and community.

In the medieval (Muslim) period, it was the ‘madarsa’ system which ruled the educational scene. The schools (madarsas and pathsalas) were conducted almost exclusively by maulvis for Muslim students and by Brahmin priests for Hindu students.

There was really no change in the outlook of people towards education in this period also because the Muslims, like the Hindus, were tradi­tional in their outlook and laid great emphasis on religions and philosophical education rather than secular education.

Of course, one should not forget that secular education received an impetus even in Western Europe only after the 17th century, and more recently since the 19th century when the idea of scien­tific knowledge emerged.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

In this period, religious leaders and priests were often the only available literate groups, using their knowledge to read and interpret sacred texts. For the vast majority of people, growing up meant learning by imitation the same social habits and work skills as their elders.

As we know, children normally began assisting in domestic farm and craft activities at a very young age. Transmission of skill of the trade used to be handed down from generation to generation. Reading was not necessary or even useful in their lives.

Education, in whatsoever form available, was limited to higher castes only. The untouchables were debarred and discouraged to receive education. There was no much specialization of professional roles as we find today.

The modern education system that we find in India today came with Britishers. They were accompanied by Christian missionaries who established schools to impart secular education to the Indian children but also to convert them to Christianity.

Answer:

Education in India is provided by public schools (controlled and funded by three levels: central, state and local) and private schools. Under various articles of the Indian Constitution, free and compulsory education is provided as a fundamental right to children between the ages of 6 and 14. The approximate ratio of public schools to private schools in India is 7:5.

India has made progress in increasing the attainment rate of primary education. In 2011, Approximately 75% of the population, aged between 7 and 10 years, was literate.[3] India's improved education system is often cited as one of the main contributors to its economic development.[4] Much of the progress, especially in higher education and scientific research, has been credited to various public institutions. While enrolment in higher education has increased steadily over the past decade, reaching a Gross Enrollment Ratio of 24% in 2013,[5] there still remains a significant distance to catch up with tertiary education enrolment levels of developed nations,[6] a challenge that will be necessary to overcome in order to continue to reap a demographic dividend from India's comparatively young population.

At the primary and secondary level, India has a large private school system complementing the government run schools, with 29% of students receiving private education in the 6 to 14 age group.[7] Certain post-secondary technical schools are also private. The private education market in India had a revenue of US$450 million in 2008, but is projected to be a US$40 billion market.[8]

As per the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER) 2012, 96.5% of all rural children between the ages of 6-14 were enrolled in school. This is the fourth annual survey to report enrolment above 96%. India has maintained an average enrolment ratio of 95% for students in this age group from year 2007 to 2014. As an outcome the number of students in the age group 6-14 who are not enrolled in school has come down to 2.8% in the year academic year 2018 (ASER 2018).[9] Another report from 2013 stated that there were 229 million students enrolled in different accredited urban and rural schools of India, from Class I to XII, representing an increase of 23 lakh students over 2002 total enrolment, and a 19% increase in girl's enrolment.[10] While quantitatively India is inching closer to universal education, the quality of its education has been questioned particularly in its government run school system.While more than 95 percent of children attend primary school, just 40 percent of Indian adolescents attend secondary school (Grades 9-12). Since 2000, the World Bank has committed over $2 billion to education in India. Some of the reasons for the poor quality include absence of around 25% of teachers every day.[11] States of India have introduced tests and education assessment system to identify and improve such schools.[12]

Although there are private schools in India, they are highly regulated in terms of what they can teach, in what form they can operate (must be a non-profit to run any accredited educational institution) and all other aspects of operation. Hence, the differentiation of government schools and private schools can be misleading.[13]

In January 2019, India had over 900 universities and 40,000 colleges.[14] In India's higher education system, a significant number of seats are reserved under affirmative action policies for the historically disadvantaged Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes. In universities, colleges, and similar institutions affiliated to the federal government, there is a maximum 50% of reservations applicable to these disadvantaged groups, at the state level it can vary. Maharashtra had 73% reservation in 2014, which is the highest percentage of reservations in India
