Monitor
Govt schools
Sir,
Education
is the basic need of human beings. No
Nation worth her name and determined to
progress, flourish and prosper to the
limit of zenith, can afford to neglect
this indispensable field.
It is the
process of education which not only
activates the dormant faculties of the of
man but also ignites in him the flame of
single minded devotion, responsibility,
determination and burning desire to
progress in spiritual as well as
materialistic field.
At this
critical juncture the system of education
in our country is not working well. The
dichotomous educational system of the
country is ill placed and ill equipped to
enable the Nation to achieve the desired
results.
From
primary school to University level, on
the one hand we have Govt. schools run by
the State Govt. as well as Central Govt.
and on the other hand running parallel to
it we have mushroom growth of private
Institutions wherein the education is
very costly and beyond the reach of
common man.
Hefty sums
of money are spent to either Govt. for
running their schools. Good pay scales
have been given to the teachers but
quality of education being imparted in
Govt. School is not upto the mark.
Schools are not properly managed.
Teachers pay scant attention in giving
the best of education to their pupils,
resultantly the standard of education in
Govt. schools is falling at a rapid pace
and the major chunk of society that is
not economically equipped to educate
their wards in private schools are
worried and pertubed about the future of
their children.
Selection
of teachers is not done is a fair and
just manner. Their teaching acumen is not
given due weightage. Teaching is a
specialised profession. Every Tom, Dick
and Harry cannot teach. At present we
don't have ideal and devoted teachers.
They don't pay proper attention is
shaping and architecting the personality
of their students but most of the
teachers misguide them. They goad them
for private tuitions from them and if
they refuse, they ill treat them, that is
why number of students in Govt. schools
is dropping. This is unhealthy and
undesirable practice and needs be curbed
by the Authorities that be.
Select
your teachers with due pre-cautions. Give
them needed training for teaching.
Motivate them on proper lines, awaken
them about the goals of education. Proper
monitoring of Govt. schools is need of
the hour. We have talented stuff in Govt.
schools but apathy of teachers spoil
their careers.
Yours etc...
