Education - Is it Equal for All?
by Richa Maheshwari



Education - a privilege of the elite or a fundamental right of the masses? Ancient India allowed only for a selected few to be educated - the Bhramins - holders of knowledge. The system has been severely criticized by us modern folks but have things really changed? Yes, we no longer blatantly discriminate based on caste; instead we have identified more subtle ways of doing the same!



The state of public schooling in India is down in the pits. If one hopes to learn any academics, one must be prepared to shell out enough to pay a private school fee. Typically, the better the school the higher the fee. If we consider the state of higher education around the world, we find little difference. The more highly regarded the university and the course, the fatter the course fee. Often students are unable to enroll in the course of their choice simply because they are unable to afford it. More often, they are not able to pursue the career of their choice, worrying instead about repaying bank loans.

Why is it that in our highly developed, technologically advanced society, we are still unable to provide for an inclusive education system? Why are we still so discriminating in who receives access to quality education? Why is such a fundamental institution being run like a business?
Why does education continue to remain a privilege of the elite?

  1. In some regions of Asia the discrimination regarding study level is still present.Those who have money admit their children in private schools and the poor have to go in government schools where the teaching facilities are so much poor.In such a double standard environment essay writing services essaythinker.com some precautionary rules should be set by government.

  5. The main problem of the 21st century education is poverty. Kids who are living in poverty need more, not less, of the supports that help upper-class children thrive. Thanks for the article! I will recommend it to my friends from Special-Essays.

  14. The most basic thingto know about the importance of education is to research its benefits or how it will brighten up your life. If you like numbers, then maybe search up statistics of how many people have changed when they were more knowing about the world. It is http://custom-writing.net

  15. That is the problem with our country.There are so many young people who really want to get their Higher Education diploma, but unfortunately due to many reasons they cannot afford it. Is there any solution? I doubt that there is one at this point. Would have been nice if more grants were at least available for talented kids www.advanced-writer.com. Or maybe good discounts for them. In any case, something that would allow them to study!

  18. Hi! I agree with you, education is not equal for everyone throughout the world - even nowadays.. Regretfully, in such countries like India, China, many Afican countries etc there are many people who can't pay for education. There is much of injustice e. g. in USA students even can use helpful web services as papers-writings.com when in India children haven't an opportunity study at school!

  19. Yes, unfortunately, it is absolutely true. Families with low income cannot afford good education for their children. I think technologically advanced society must create an inclusive education system. If students need high-quality academic papers at not big prices they can easily find them at http://academic-writings.com.
