| Privatisation of Education | | | TOUSEEF IQBAL BUTT | 3/26/2012 1:00:18 AM |
| As all we know the importance of education in modern fast world where the only education helps to grow up towards the developmental state. Education infect changes the status and role of an individual and if we go by the educational concern it is the modification of behavior and harmonious development. What actually education helps us to make a difference in what is good and what is bad. Its specialization is to making a well human being. India is making a new sense of educational standard in term of making it privatize which helps to spread education in every corner of nation. No doubt privatization somewhere penetrates the educational system because of its greed of making money and all this.
Since the impact of privat-ization is penetrating all sectors of the economy, it is bound to affect education sector as well. As it is very difficult to meet the democratic aspirations of the people for further expansion of educational system due to paucity of resources it is therefore, being felt that the private sector is inducted in education so that it car share the burdens of the state in funding education.
In India, the privatization of education has been taking place at the school level without much resistance. But it has not made much dent into other levels. However privatization, though necessary has some drawbacks. Private education sectors and other private trusts often become merely profit making business ventures with no social aims or objectives and not having the how to lead the nation's future.
It is very important to look after the state-vise educational limit of nation because if privatization of education comes into conflict with the equity objective, state intervention would be desirable. It is necessary that state intervention be increased in private sector institutions to increase the quota of seats to the poor and deprived sections and help in promoting human resources development to keep pace with the emerging needs. Priva-tization is now in all over the world .Its economical concept seems to break the monopoly of the private sectors in the world. The institutions are getting strong with their own law and rules. Privati-zation is one of the hottest issues currently being debated in the education sector. It is fast becoming a widespread trend when considering education reform, as it eases the pressure on governments to meet increasing demand and relieves them of excessive costs. In developed countries, the issues at hand are provision and accountability.
Here, privatization can be advantageous to parents, who are given more freedom and choice when deciding on schools for their children, and greater control over the way their children are educated. The varied needs and requirements in present of the developed and developing countries speaks that the motive of privatization vary and that the form of privatization adopted is also specific to the country and its economic and geographical situation. It remains still a question that who is more benefited with this privatization of education? Privatization of education and Public education is perhaps the most important investment our nation can make - a public investment in each child, in society, and in the future of and all its citizens. We must make a strategy to spread education to all over the nation so that the literacy rate rises and our nation become strong. Education is also one of the strong instruments for the eradication of poverty. The mo-re the nation is illiterate, the more poverty increa-ses. Nodoubt private institutes are little or more expensive but the reservation provisions for the SC/ST/OBC and minorities helps to fulfill the standard educational needs of lower castes and poor peoples in a nation. For a Educationist and Sociologist privatization is truly very costly and everyone cannot afford it but in this competitive world people have to have standardized education which the government has far not been able to fulfill all these to the full extent. So I suggest government and private institutes should come together so that the question of discrimination and affordability should not arise and our nation can also become the hundred percent literate but not in the case of getting much money in private schools, colleges, universities than Government institutions where in private sectors average families can't afford to admit their children in such institutions. |
