Recently Bill Gates commented that the Indian education system should have been far better than it is today. We may have to accept that Indian education system is under nourished. That is probably the main reason why India is not able to strive as a developed country.
School education is the base upon which higher education is structured
School education is the base upon which higher education is structured. A solid higher education can only open doors to research and innovations. A strong research driven education can help developing the technology and industry.
There are so many schools and their franchises all over India
In search of a good elementary, middle or high school, we will get totally confused. There are so many schools and their franchises all over India. But are they really good? Are these schools considering the basic needs of the children's education? The basic question is: "Are the school education in India good enough to cater for the future?"
Have you heard about a new school named Levelfield School?
Very recently, I have come to know about a school named Levelfield School. The school is situated in Siuri, a rural town in Birbhum district of West Bengal. Siuri is only 34 km away from the world famous Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan, founded by Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore. Siuri is 220 km away from the city of joy Kolkata. This very school, Levelfield School embraced a holistic approach of education in real sense.

Everybody says 'holistic education'. How holistically education should be imparted? What new techniques are being adopted in Levelfield School that can help the students' learning holistically?
I gathered some information from the owner Arghya Banerjee's posts and articles published in the electronic and print media. People from Delhi and other places of India are coming to visit the Levelfield School.
The Levelfield School developed its own methods of teaching and learning
The Levelfield School developed its own methods of teaching and learning. The students learn more intuitively using modern electronic gadgets and learning aids which are proprietary developments of the school.

The students of the Levelfield School don't need any private tutoring
The Levelfield School employ teachers with masters degree and aptitudes for research. Most of the teachers can teach both science and arts subjects. The students of the Levelfield School don't need any private tutoring. In fact, the parents are advised not to put their wards under any private tutoring so as to yield better results of the innovative teaching methods of the school.
I am going to visit the Lavelfield School soon
When I connected with Arghya Benerjee and expressed my wish to write about his school, he invited me to visit the school. Today morning I and one of my neighbors were discussing when we would visit the Levelfield School. Sooner or later, we will surely visit.
Do you like to explore the Lavelfield School ? I think you should do
In the meantime, may I request my LinkedIn connections to explore the Levelfield School from its website. You may also read the articles and posts of Arghya Banerjee, the founder and owner of the school. And if you are visiting Kolkata or Santiniketan, don't hesitate to visit the school.

7 å¹´Thanks James Schacht for joining .. I have viewed your shared link of "Daughter of Destiny" and the Shanti Bhavan Children's Project. That is a fantastic effort to give education to the unprivileged children of rural India .. I appreciate that you devote time to see these humanitarian projects

7 å¹´Thank you for this eye-opening article. I do like what you have shared and what I see on the Levelfield school web site! There is an excellent documentary available on Netflix called the "Daughters of Destiny" that also opened my eyes to the problems and positive solutions to quality education. It focused on overcoming the stigma of an untouchable caste, the Dalits, and helping the children break out of the cycle that has repeated for generations. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/28/arts/television/daughters-of-destiny-netflix-tv-review.html
