| Summary, etc. |
The Indian education system is perhaps the largest system in the world catering to above 20 crore students of different socio-economic background in pre-primary to primary, upper primary, secondary and higher secondary to college and university level. However, a large number of children continue to dropout from the system before completion of an education cycle, which severely affects the efficiency of the education system; the children are taking more years to become primary graduates than ideally required. The unfinished task in terms of unenrolled and out-of-school children is a challenging one. In several countries of the world Public Private Partnership (PPP) approach is being extensively used in addressing this problem. This article examines whether the private providers can be associated with the development of social infrastructure services, though in such services there may not be a direct charge from the beneficiaries because of obvious social constraints. The article also recommends various possible options of PPP in elementary education, which have to be analysed in terms of their complexities involved and commitment of the government and the private partner. - Reproduced. |
