The National Curriculum Framework (NCF)–2005 states that education should enable a child to draw connections between ideas, people and things, and relate them to the world around. This issue of The Primary Teacher focuses on contemporary issues in elementary education. The first paper by Vijitha Rajan examines some important aspects of educational exclusion of children of migrant workers in India. For the children of migrant labourers, particularly, seasonal and short-term migrants in distress, schooling is still a distant dream. A new theoretical and policy discourse that embodies children’s everyday experiences of migration and education in larger politics of exclusion is presented in this paper. In the second paper titled ‘The Nurturance of a Scientist’, Vandana Kerur shares some memorable incidents from the life of Thomas Edison and highlights how his mother played an important role in his life.
