I had occasion to visit some schools in Keralam, which has a reputation for total literacy.
The quality and dedication of teaching staff is below standard. The number of students is much less than the capacity of the school. This is because parents prefer English medium schools; and also because of two child norms strictly enforced by women in Keralam, who simply refuse to part their thighs. In other states girls are not educated and they breed like pigs.
Many schools have only temporary sheds. Old buildings have not been repaired for a long time and are leaking in heavy rains. School buildings collapsing in heavy rains is not rare.
The only visible activity is making food for free lunch. The teachers give some work to the pupils and then take rest.
At this stage, teachers must entertain the pupils with stories and visual images for which maps and pictures should be provided. The rich people must liberally provide these to the schools.
Expenditure on Defence should be cut drastically and the money saved used for primary education in Government schools.
