1. Infrastructure:
Many government schools lack adequate infrastructure and basic facilities such as
classrooms, furniture, libraries, laboratories, clean toilets, and drinking water. Poor
infrastructure can significantly impact the learning environment and discourage students
from attending school regularly. Two or three different classes are being thought in the
same room. Almost all the school still do not have benches for the students.
4. Dropout Rates:

SOCIETAL PROJECT REPORT
High dropout rates are a significant concern in government schools. Several factors
contribute to this, including poverty, the need for child labor, lack of motivation, and the
perception that the quality of education is subpar. Many students, particularly from
marginalized communities, end up leaving school prematurely, limiting their future
prospects.
5. Socio-economic Disparities:
Government schools often cater to students from economically weaker sections of
society. The socio-economic disparities prevalent in India further compound the challenges
faced by these schools. Limited access to resources, lack of parental support, and societal
barriers can significantly impact students' educational outcomes.
6. Administrative Issues:
Some government schools face administrative inefficiencies and corruption, which
can affect the overall functioning of the institution. Mismanagement of funds, lack of
accountability, and bureaucratic red tape can hamper efforts to improve the quality of
education.
7. Perception of private schools:
People feel there are not enough teachers in government schools, or the schools may
not be functioning regularly. They get carried away by the notions of a branded private
school, even though it may not have good teachers. Also, private schools’ brand themselves
as English medium and it is most imperative for children’s education.
8.Student teacher ratio:
The number of students in search of proper education is way more in comparison to the
teachers and faculty available. Thus, qualified teachers must be appointed to impart
knowledge to the future of the country.
9. Closure of School:
Due to the low strength of students and lack of teachers many government schools are
closed. This is due to the competitions raised by private schools.
It's important to note that implementing these measures requires long-term planning,
consistent policy implementation, and the active involvement of all stakeholders. Continuous
monitoring and evaluation are essential to track progress, identify challenges, and make
necessary adjustments for sustained improvement.
Conclusion:
Private schools are definitely better than government schools as they would provide
better infrastructure, better teacher to student ratio, have a clean & hygienic facility, provide
better environment for students with options of personality development and extracurricular
activities. Government schools may not be able to offer all these features but for those who
cannot afford private schools, getting their children in government schools is better than no
schooling at all.
The overarching problems concerning each level of education in India are quality and
pertinence. India bears extensive difficulties in facing the requirements of a growing and
modern workforce. Some of the needs that India’s education sector faces are appropriate
curriculum, quality teachers, financial support for students, and adequate facilities. Additional
challenges involve the inability to meet the different linguistic, social, regional, and local
education needs of such a large country. Recent advancements in Indian management have
made this an especially suitable time for corporations to commit to the development of
India’s education system.
Though the government tries to enhance the quality of government schools. They try to
provide required facilities and quality of education but people attract towards the private
school. In India, people generally try to get away from government schools because of the
infrastructure and the safety issues. Parents mainly look for the safety of their children the
government schools are not much safer than the private school therefore parents choose
private school over government school.
Even though government provides the required needs to the students in the government
schools, but the strength of the school is very less this is because of the attraction that parents
have towards the private schools. The parents are attracted by the facilities provided by the
private schools. The safety of the students in the government school is poor this is the major
reason why parents make their students study in the private schools. The medium of
education is also the reason for failure in the government schools.
