Project Detail:
India has achieved significant progress in expanding access to education over the past two decades: enrollment at the primary level became near universal by 2016, and enrollment at the secondary level increased from just 33% in 2000 to 70% in 2018. Gender parity has also been achieved, with enrollment of girls now exceeding that of boys, although there is some variation across the states. However, increased enrollment has not yet been translated into learning. National learning assessments show that students at grades 3, 5 and 8 are not acquiring competencies expected at each grade level.F Low proficiency in early grades also leads to high dropout rates and low completion rates as students move through secondary education. To address ongoing challenges in school education, the Ministry of Education (MOE) shifted its focus from the earlier emphasis on expanding access to improving the quality of education. The MOE in 2018 launched a centrally-sponsored scheme Samagra Shiksha with the aim of supporting states in ensuring the quality of education, particularly inclusive and equitable learning outcomes.
