A Study of Academic Achievement Progression of Students of RTE Act 2009 in Private Schools of Ujjain District

Abstract

Education has a lot to contribute in the development of both the personality of human being and nation's growth. It provides valuable developmental opportunities to children. Yet, millions of children remain deprived of educational opportunities across the world. Despite the children's right to education being internationally recognized, it is yet to be ultimately fulfilled in various parts of the world. The huge number of dropped-out school children from various parts of the world reflects a broken promise. This scenario is affecting education system, health of children, their families and the complete growth and development of the nations where they live. In the absence of an elaborate and properly structured educational system, children's mental and physical health took a big hit. This has also affected their capacity to actively participate in the functions of their communities, subsequently, affecting their chances to be effective parents in future. Without giving children their Right to Education, countries are unable to achieve other optimum development goals.
