    3. Issues:
    Has education become a business? Do fees reflect academic standards? Can we make private school education affordable? Costs of running good schools

    In India, substantial share of public education budget is channelled to private institutions. This is the result of a system by which govt contracts private schools to meet the demands of schools exceeding public systems. (Global education Digest, 2007, UNESCO).

    4. What Next? Govt Answer. 1. Right of Children to Free and Compulsory to Education Act, 2009 2. Prohibition of Unfair Practices in Schools and Intermediate Colleges, Bill, 2011.
