Education | Turning a new page

India boasts a storied legacy of educational excellence, harking back to the ancient institutions of Nalanda and Taxila. Even today, it has one of the largest education ecosystems in the world, encompassing nearly 1.5 million schools, more than 40,000 colleges and over 1,000 universities, which together serve nearly 300 million students.However, this quantitative advantage has not translated into qualitative success. For instance, while India boasts a Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) of 108 per cent for primary education (check the accompanying graphic for why it exceeds 100 per cent), it plummets to around 79 per cent for secondary education. In contrast, China maintains a 100 per cent GER for primary education and 89 per cent for secondary education, reflecting better student retention. India...

Education | Pramath Raj Sinha: India as a global study centre

Big is not always beautiful. With over 58,000 institutions and 43 million students, India’s higher education system is one of the biggest in the world. But the overall perception of our colleges and universities is poor and, indeed, our institutions are plagued by issues of low quality. Addressing these deficiencies requires a three-pronged approach focused on systemic change. Without this, India cannot become a global hub for higher education; we need to become high-quality locally to be perceived as an attractive centre internationally.Currently, there is a huge disparity in the quality of education. While prestigious public institutions like the IITs and IIMs and private ones such as Ashoka University and ISB take pains to maintain high standards, most colleges and universities struggle...

Let us gaze into the distance and in our mind’s eye, imagine what a school can be like in the future.Building foundations: The school for small children has four rooms built around a big internal courtyard. Each of these rooms has doors that connect into their neighbouring rooms. Wide verandas wrap around the school building on the outside.

Education | Manish Sabharwal: Our new tryst with destiny

India’s twin challenges of politics and economics involved two risky experiments in 1947. The political one—votes for everyone—has worked out spectacularly, with India creating the world’s largest democracy on the infertile soil of the world’s most hierarchical society. But the economic one—embodied in the Avadi resolution of 1955 where the Congress session adopted a socialist economic path—failed spectacularly because it sabotaged mass prosperity by confiscating the entrepreneurial freedom to create jobs. Consequently, our labour is handicapped without capital and our capital is handicapped without labour. Our unfinished journey from national independence to mass prosperity requires policy innovation at the intersection of jobs and skills. The recent budget has made a great start, but ref...
