NAGARAJAMURUGAN Chief Educational Officer, Tamil Nadu Abstract Education is an engine of social and economic development.

The supply side the government intervene in educational sector to create a positive externality in all aspects, in that sense in VirudhuNagar district (which is well known in internationally for its fireworks) is tested for its school educational status. The output of school education shown that the government sector played a vital role more than the private sector in VirudhuNagar District. Key words: School Education, S.S.L.C and Perception. Introduction Education is a critical invasive instrument for bringing about social, economic and political inclusion and a durable integration of people, particularly those excluded from the mainstream of any society. Indian education system was thrown open too all rich, poor and middle income classes, men and women, rural and urban population, and backward and non-backward segments of the population at all levels. As a consequence, there has been a veritable explosion in numbers – student numbers, institutions, and teachers. The returns to education may vary across individuals, regions, level and nature of education; in general, they are significantly higher for poor developing areas than for rich. Education is therefore his best social investment, given the synergies and the positive externalities that it generates for people in their well-being.

Health is not a luxury but fundamental need for a common man. This paper provides an insight into introduction and growth of Allopathic medical education in the Madras state by British and contribution of Dravidian parties to the growth of medical education in Tamil Nadu.

They scratched the soil and began to look at the root, and left the root like that, and the beautiful tree perished… ancient schools have gone by the board, because there was no recognition for these schools, and the schools established after the European pattern were too expensive for the people, and therefore they could not possibly overtake the thing.

Access to basic education lies at the heart of development. Lack of educational access, and securely acquired knowledge and skill, is both a part of the definition of poverty, and a means for its diminution. Sustained access to meaningful learning that has value is critical to long term improvements in productivity, the reduction of inter-generational cycles of poverty, demographic transition, preventive health care, the empowerment of women, and reductions in inequality.

  • School Dropouts of SC and ST Students in Chennai Corporation Schools
    S. Peter, K.J. Raman and P. Ravilochanan School Dropouts of SC and ST Students… School Dropouts of SC and ST Students in Chennai Corporation Schools S. PETER, K.J. RAMAN AND P. RAVILOCHANAN The present study aims at culling out the various factors involved in making students from the Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) categories to drop out of school. The study found that most of them attend school to have the noon meal and avail of monetary benefits like waiver on exam fees, free uniforms and books. As soon as they join secondary school, SC/ST students were forced to discontinue their studies due to various reasons as compared to other caste students. Due to this, SC/ST students find it difficult to start their own business and get employment only in unskilled jobs. The imperative step at this juncture would be ‘Education for All’ and to stress further ‘compulsory education at any cost for all’ and also to provide proper education for school dropouts. Reverend Dr. S. Peter and Dr. K.J. Raman are faculty with Loyola College, Chennai; and Dr. P. Ravilochanan is Faculty Member, A.M. Jain College, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
