Abstract
As a country we have made significant positive strides
in access and enrollment, and in providing basic
facilities in schools. The next big challenge in primary
schooling is the quality of education. As these quotes also
suggest, this challenge is now widely acknowledged.
Assessments by independent entities, parent migration to
private schools especially in urban areas, active debate
generated by non-profits and strong push from funders,
have all emphasized the tremendous magnitude of the
quality gap and helped create awareness. Over the last few
years, a large number of initiatives – led by governments,
non-profits and for-profits – have been launched and driven
around the country, to improve quality of education. While
these are great starting points, in many situations, they have been insufficient for two key reasons.
