The above table reveals that, between 1931 and
1951, the literacy rate has increased by about 1(3 percentage:
points reaching to 21.69 percent in 1951. After independence,
there has b e e n a remarkable progress in literacy in the State. In
1951, the State alongwith the country ushered into an era of all
round planned economic development. As set out in the directive
principles of State policy in constitution to endeavour fc-
providing free and compulsory education to all the children till
they complete 14 years of age, the Government has given g- eo +
importance to the development of primary education. As a result of implementation o-f afK j : i,ir ogra m m e i • educ < Li oar, , tlie iteracv

E. Sexwise Literacy Rates No. o-f Literates
At the beginning of the present century, the
■female literacy was very low. Only one out of every hundred
■females was able to read and write. The position o-f male literacy
was however, 14.5 percent being literates among them in 1901. Till
1931, the progress o-f feniaie literacy was relatively slow, which
is evident -from the -fact that -ff-om 1901 to 1931 the literacy rate
•for males increased -frc-T 14.5 percent in 1901 to 13.6 percent rn
1931. The progress thereafter was, however, somewhat faster. The
details on 5e;;-wise i'u(Tibe-‘ of liberates and literacy rates are

Since 1964, Primary Education has b e e n made -free and compulsory in thestate. District Primarv E d u c a t i o n committies under District Panchayats are the admjnistrative authorities for the Primary Education at district level. Disdtrict Primary Education Officer (DPEO) is the S e c r e t a r y D-f the CoflMBitteo. The DPEO has also been given assistance of Dy.DPEO to monitor the implementation of the plan schemes. The State Government sanctions 100% salary g r a n t s for P r i m a r y Education to District Panchayats and also provides d a t u m capitation grant of Rs.3.00 per student.

The tremendous efforts were made by expanding ' the educatitnal facilities particularly in rural areas by planned e-f-forts, to attract more children to the school and retaining them in the schools by persuation rather that litigation. The trained teachers have been appointed in the schools as well as techniques of inspection and supervision have been improved. More over various steps have also b e e n taken for the expansion of educational system in the state. The National Policy on Eductioon (NPE), 1986 and programme of Action (PDA) 1992 have toeen introduced as a land mark in the development of education. The ratio of classroom per teacher is 0.66. The State Bovernment has considered the requirement of a class room per teacher as an ideal. Taking this into consideration there is shortagr of 35168 rooms in the state as on June--94. The State Bovernment has prepared the Action Plan to meet with the requirement. All single teacher's schools having enrolment more than 35 have b»»n converted into two teachers. The emphasis has also been niade providenecrssary facilities viz., Black Board, maps charts, chalks etc., to teachers, students and schols. The vigorou!;: efforts have been made: through Annual development plan, min.imu(ri needs programme (MNP) Bordei" Area Development Programme (BADP) Centrally Bponsored schemes like RLEGP Scheme for construction o-f clat;:s-rooms etc. t: provide elementary education more effective. The schools are madefully equipped with teaching aids under the scheme of Operation Bl^ck Board (OB) which is sponsored by Central Government. Thus the qualitative aspects ^as been extrcine] > emphasised in elementary education. In the first phase of OP s schools o-f 61 blocks 7municipal areas were covered. ' In the second phaise o-f OB, 445 schools of 22 municipa’ school boards have been covered for urban area. In the third phase o-f OB, 7179 schools of 123 blocks have been covered -for rural area. For improvement of enrolment position of weaker sections of the s o c i e t i e s i.e. SC, ST, SEBC and girls various kinds of incentives like free supply of school text books, and School Uniforms in Tribal areas are provided. Financial Assistance to talented G i r l s students are also given on merit. The parents of pupils from primitive groups are given special incentive in the form o-t food grains.’Mid-day meal with nutrition is introduced in the state. The State Government has also decided to teach English from Standard V on voluntary basis, for which teachers were imparted training in the subject.

Educational issues and problems of the district During pre -independence times, E-ia.naBkantha was fragfriented into many princely 5'.;,ates and estates. Unfortunately, mass education was not an important priority. At the time of independence, there were very few primary s'lhools in the then Banaskantha district (which comprised the present district without Radhanf^l^ talukas, but included parts of Si'ohi were later transferred to Rajasthan). Serious efforts to expand schooling were initiated in 1953 with the introduction of three schemes : (a) single teacher schools for village^ with population of over 580; (b) clustering of small Nvillagesj^ for a centrally 1 oc a te'd school and (c> peripatetic • teacherfi), under which a teacher covered one village in the morning and another in the evening. By 1953, there were 511 primary schODls and by 1961, twp years before the panchayatsystem took over, 91,24 percent of the villages had access to primary schodling. By 1974, 97,30 percent of the population had primary a ' 1:.5 k*. . fr«w> . ttmlr"' Howvvttr, in spite of this rapid d»v»lopiMnt in a c e *»» tsp schooling during the first thr»e five-year plans, the •dueati.onal performance in terms of retention of children in the ^ ' ''-K ' y,-'' ■ ■ • . , i»ystl»« been very poor. In what follows, the reports on educational issues and problems, prepared by teachers an( inspectors, are summarized. These reports draw on the proceedings of two district|'level workshops conductted in September 1995, and 041 disciissions the 4:ieachfif^s have had with cofununity lei^ders at tHir Palanpur t day Palanpur taluka covers the former Palanpur state.

Migration of families in seart^rt Of Noi^k for about six tc eight months in a year is common among the scheduled castes anc I o th e r backward cl «B£ie*5 in these talukas. This i& one reason for the high dropout rate® in these arear, Ecological problems like drought add to the problem. The froblem cf child labour is must acute in these talukas. They are also the most economically backward in the district. Most of the teachers are from Mehsana and Sabarkantha districts. This often re<^-Lilts in many teachers., demanding transfers out of the district. Danta is a mineral-rich forest area. Its educational performance is quite good, with low dropout rates. But the problems of girls' education, child labour and student absenteeism are severe. The problems of Deesa, Radhanpur, Santa’pur c-';d Deodhar are similar. Educational performance is especiair, affected by migration of the Koli community which inhabits the western of Deodhar taluka. The high proportions of certain commuriitiTO of Rajputs, Rabaris and Jath (Muslims) whiclj exhibit very low levels o-F'enrolment of qirls add to the eductional proble*Ks in Radhan^r*-and Santa 1 pur. ic^ankrej tailuka is‘ comparatively well-off, but specific areas along the Banas river (about 20 villages) show very low enrolment and.hiQh dropouts. lifie ¥bove is a general picture of the different calukas. Specific strategies for certain locations and for certain communities which have been remai/hed eductional ly backward need to be formulated.

Undergirding this approach to ‘Ipl.amillttg ; is the concern for decentrali2 = ‘’^tanning and for empowei^ing a significant human resource at the cutting edge of education - the teaching community. Educational per-forfrance i_ Banast-antha distric:t Gross enrolment in Gujarat (Cl .-i3 ses 1 to 7) has grown by •bout 13 percent over the six-year period 198B--89 to 1993-94, wiif. the enrolments increasing from 66,14,60';^ in 1989 to "^4,66,424 ir 1993. Over the f?ame period, enrolments in Banaskantha increased ■from 2,42,441 to 2,69,449 an increase of about 1: percent. “'he gross enrolment rate -for the state is estimated to be over 10(2 percent. However, as is well known, this parameter tends to over estimate the actual enrolments. What w'll be of more relevance the net enrolment ratio, which is the run-iber of :::f,ildren Le?lorig:i.r.Cj to the specified age group enrolled ir .5 particular level, c-.s , percentage of the total number of child: en i.; that age group. Tentative estimates prepared in late i ‘^9 3 ■^o*' Banaskantha indicate that the percentage of children of the age-group 3 to 11 enrolled in Gl^asii 3: 1to 7 may be as low as 62 percent.l Field studies ir BansiBlcanthait laarried out in late 1994, confirm this estimate, and in faet: indicate that in many villages, the proportion may beonly about 4® percent. These estimates have to be treated with caution, but they indicate that the proportion of out-of-school children (the "never-enrolled’ and the primary level dropouts) is SiijnlfdLcanl;! and that any plan for improving achievement levels of atl 1 cliildrc?h and for aiming at primary education in contrast to just schooling, needs to ini tiate interventions targeted at these non-^Bchool ch ild ren . u One reason -for the high prcporti ;on of out-of school children in the district, is the high dropout rate-. Dropout ratr^^B -for Gujarat (Classes 1 to 5) are 38.-'J porcETit for boys and 49.1 percent -for girls. The rates -for Panasl^antha district c.re mucti higher (Table 1).

Note : Only the 1S68 schools run by the district panchayat are ConSldereii here* These schools constitute more than 96 percent of the to^tal number o-f schools in the district (1V36) and account for about 93 percent of the enrolmnet, (data as of September 30, 1993) is significant is that the best taluka in Banaskantha (Vad^am) has a higher dropout rate t'ian the state's average of about 44 percent. One pjossible factor peculiar to Eanaskantha is the very low transition rate from Class 1 to 2. A taluka-wise analysis of the average transition rate of five batches (1936 tc 1990) indicated that compar-?d with tfte state average of 79.7 perccnt for Cla's 1 to 2 , Bara^kantha has a rate of only 66.1. Artificially high registrations at the beginriing of the acc^demic yaar when the household survey is done— which may be assim ed to be coilMRcm to all districts—may be an influencing factor. But ohen the existing scheme of automatic promotions in classcs one and two—provided children attend school for 150 days--is also considered, it is obvious that, regardless of the accuracy of enrolment data, the lower primary levels a: e more crucial in districts like Banaskantha than in othar districts. Planning for retention, therefore, needs to f V special attsntion to putting the right teachers in these levels. In order to bring down the high dropout levels to the targeted ten percent, it is necessary to understand the socio economic correlates of the dropout and "never-enrol led'' phenomena. Macro-level pictures indicate the magnitude of the problem, but irt-depth fxejd 5''tudie5, based on qualita.t4ye information, may provide a better Hf^reciation 6f the problefi). The next section highlights, very briefly, some of the socio-economic actors affectingenrollment and retention? which are of relevance to 1- planning. StMdies of 2DB children in group of 5 to 11, indiCAtad that the porportion of schdol^oirtg children was only 58.5 percent. Dropouts accounted for 38.9 percent and the never - enrolled for a significant 22.6 percent. This finding is consistent with the findings of othf^r micro-level studies.

These fin ilings are encouraging when cqrts^ered from the point of view of ii ie ' demand' for istiucation.

Terhaps, one.: may conclude that the initial barriers t o enrollmerit are w h d l af-fect thff^ educational attainment of girls. Any plan for universal enrolment* therefore, needs to identify these barriers and devise strategies for overcoming them. The field studies i- dicate that these barriers in Banaskantha may be mainly attitudes of parents and the communities in general, regarding the utility of education ot girls. perception that the low future economic returns from edutatij^ of i^irls does not justify their schooling is quite common ^the argumij^ti b»ing that girls will “pass on to someone else after marriage***! t-ack of a tradition of educating girls is also cited as a reason fbr not considering education of girls important. A third factor mentioned is the fear tnat e^sposure to schooling will lead to an ^ 0?|ion of traditional norms. These factors only reflect the pre^udi^iifei: against women which follow from the way gender reljitit^Siflire structurfed in society in general.
