TOP 10 BAD THINGS ABOUT INDIAN EDUCATION SYSTEM

Its the most awaited article i want to write upon it. Before starting the article i will recommend you watch the movie on Indian education system ''SUPER 30 ". While we all understand how crucial education is to shape our lives, it has also been a major problem in our country. There are several issues that the Indian education system is grappled with. Just ask to yourself, your friends,cousins, children, or anyone students - what he want to become in his life. Many of answer about the job for there self. And those are guide them they are also like that minded person. I am discussing about '' TOP 10 BAD THINGS ABOUT INDIAN EDUCATION SYSTEM"

1.STUDENTS ARE NOT ENCOURAGED TO BECOME ENTREPRENEUR : Have you ever wondered by most of the Indians work in MNCs which are owned by Entrepreneurs from foreign countries? The answer is very simple. In India, parents and school teachers never encourage children to become entrepreneurs. What is taught in schools is just to get a high paying job, no matter if they have to work under someone lifelong. There is a lack of ambition in Indian students. As the final year of their degrees comes, they start looking for placements in foreign companies.

2. PROMOTION OF RATE RACE : In our country, most of the parents want their children to score good marks, top position in the class and nothing else. As soon as the results are declared, they start comparing their kids with other kids who have got higher marks. So, what children basically do is, they just mug up the text written in books, without even trying to understand their meanings and they sit in the exam hall and write down whatever they have crammed the earlier night. As soon as the examination is over, whatever they had studied goes away with it. So, the child is unable to acquire any analytical skills through whatever he/she has studied.In India, about 46,000 suicides occurred each in 15–29 and 30–44 age groups in 2012 – or about 34% each of all suicides.Around 75,000 students committed suicides in India between 2007 and 2016.

3. MEDIUM OF TEACHING : Parents in India think that if their children are going to English-medium schools, then it is like an achievement for them. However, very few people understand that medium of teaching has nothing to do with subjects like mathematics, physics etc. All that is required is that students must be able to understand and learn what is being taught to them.

4. PERSONALITY IS NOT IMPROVED : Just including English as a subject in the main course of the boards does not mean the Indian children can speak and write properly in English. There would be still so many people who do not know how to write grammatically correct sentences, let alone paragraphs. Indians do not insist on the persona of the student, their insistence is on marks and grades. Personality is always more important than academics. Even if you are a school topper, but your face doesn’t reveal that, it is of no use. In school or collage we just focus on their marks , not about the communication skills, public speaking, confidence etc.

5. TOO MUCH NATIONALISM IS TAUGHT : In almost every Indian school, children are taught to love their country and hate foreign countries. This is definitely not good as when a child grows, he understands the flaws in his own country and at that time, he would simply start hating it. Blind love is never a good thing. Education authorities should understand this thing and should do something to develop global outlook in their students rather than confining them to just their own country.

6. TEACHER ARE NOT EFFICIENT :It is said that children learn the character traits of a person they are in contact with. So, if the teacher who is teaching is himself not efficient enough, how can we expect students to be brighter than him? Most of the youth in India does not want to go in the teaching line because the teachers are underpaid. Government needs to train the teachers properly and pay them to their full potential if it wants to see a change in the caliper of Indian students.

7. MARKET RELATED INFORMATION IS NOT GIVEN : There are so many educated persons in our country who are still looking for job. Do you really think that there is lack of employment opportunities? The answer is no. there are enough opportunities. What we lack is the awareness of these opportunities. When students get passed out from college, they do not feel like professionals, they still feel living the same college life because they are not taught previously how to survive in the market. When a fresher enter into the corporate world , then he see the real world. Maximum person even cant crack the interview , due to lack of knowledge , confidence .

8. INNOVATION AND CREATIVITY ARE MISSING : Not all the children are same. While some children are born to study the established things and become great philosophers, there are some other kinds of children who do not want to study the pre-established things but create something new. Indian students rarely get the chance to put forward their innovative ideas; such is the education system of India. Many person just killed there dream because of there parents want to see him Doctor, Engineer or any Govt job. I am really shocked when i see a post graduated person are applying for peon level job , because its govt job.

9. HIGH FEES : Most of the talented students drop their idea of becoming a doctor or engineer, just because of higher fees associated with these courses. Besides tuition fees, several other fees (like, application form fee, entrance exam fee, etc.) are also charged from students. In this case, a poor brilliant student can’t even dream of acquiring higher education.It can be concluded that a lot of improvements are needed, after seeing all these challenges. Our education system has to achieve the planned goals. Those who are reading this , they how much money there parents spend on there education. And crores of students even cant study because of high educational fees. Now education sector become a very great business sector.

10. POLITICAL AND BUREAUCRATIC INVOLVEMENT : According to ASER, about 50% students in 5th standard attending rural schools are not capable of reading a text meant for junior classes.The problem that we come across on a daily basis and in large scale is political corruption in the education system.Political corruption is the use of power by government officials for illegitimate private gain.So many amendments and policies are made, commissions are set up, but the ground of realty is rarely seen. The blend of education and corruption makes it a more deadly combo.

Education is not always about becoming a big, rich person. It should be about humanism.
