Assistance / World Bank announces Rs. 3500 crore to strengthen the foundation of primary education in Gujarat
To improve the education sector in Gujarat, the World Bank has announced a grant of about Rs 3500 crore.
1.10 crore primary school students in the state will get the benefit
40000 teachers will also benefit
The amount will be spent to strengthen the foundation of primary schools in the state
The assistance announced by the World Bank under Outcomes for Accelerated Learning Program (GOL) will benefit about 40,000 teachers in the state and about 11 million students in 54,000 schools. Let me tell you that this is a long-term partnership program between India and the World Bank to strengthen the foundation of public school education.
World Bank County Director Junaid Ahmed said investing in primary education is an important part of investing in India's human resource capital. Through this program the Government of Gujarat will strengthen the foundation of district level education, take care of the capacity of stakeholders and teachers which will create a conducive environment for education.
Gujarat has made significant progress in school education systems and has taken many measures for teacher training. The dropout rate in Gujarat's schools has also come down from 19 per cent in 2004-05 to 6 per cent in 2017-18. Gujarat has created a district level decentralized management system. However the benefits of learning still have room for improvement. At the national level, Kovid-19 has led to a decline in adolescent education. Kovid-19 has affected education in Gujarat and hence the GOL program will focus on a number of reforms.
