Abstract

This study was aimed to highlight the development of education in India by the implementation of different programmes concerned with growth of education like RTE Act 2009, Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA), etc. By reviewing different studies, it has been concluded that at present education is not at satisfactory level, but progress in education at different levels and for students of different communities is in developing condition. Some of studies indicate the poor condition of elementary education and this condition is due to poor condition of infrastructure, poor teacher learning process, parent's illiteracy, and social and economic discriminations. There is a need to monitor the programmes running for school going children. For successful implementation of any programmes serious monitoring and effective information system is required.
