Non-Performing Govt Schools Should Be Handed Over To Private Players: Niti Aayog

Government think tank Niti Aayog has recommended to hand over non-performing or "hollowed" government schools to private players under the public- private partnership (PPP) mode.

The Aayog, in its recently released "Three-year action agenda", has recommended that the idea, where the private sector adopts government schools while being publicly funded on a per child basis, can be explored.

According to the report, while the number of government schools increased over the years, the enrolment numbers in them have been falling drastically while the number of students enrolling in private schools has been on a rise leading to "hollowing" of state-run schools.

High rate of teacher absenteeism, limited time spent on teaching when the teacher is in class and generally poor quality of education are among important reasons for this emptying out. Outcomes are worse in government schools than in private schools, it said.
