The Educational System in India


In India, our education system is handled by public sector as well as the private sector. There are government schools/colleges, government aided schools, and private schools/colleges.
  • Government schools and colleges are run entirely by the government. It’s notoriously famous that government run schools has the least facilities for students. The fees are extremely low and many parents who cannot afford the cost of private schools send their children here. In most government schools, they provide mid day meal as well
  • Government aided schools are run by private management but gets aid from the government. Here the quality of education is still questionable as most of the management never cares about the facilities in the school or the quality of education they impart. Most schools take a huge capitation from teachers (Up to 20 lakhs in some cases) as well
  • Private schools are run by management and government has no say in the functioning of the school. They often charge premium fees and provide better facility and faculty
A new section of private schools are International schools which claim international facilities (foreign faculties, swimming pools and all the most modern facilities money can buy). They often charge high prices for admission as well as in terms of fees.
The Indian educational system follows a 10 + 2 years of schooling, 3-5.5 years of graduation and 2-5 years of post graduation studies.
