We are in big illusion that
private schools are providing better education than government run schools. Measuring
quality is not easy task; learning is not always in direct relation with examination
achievement of a person. As a teacher, I see so many ups and downs on marks and
his ability in particular topics. Then why we Nepalese are running on result
only? To make happy to our donor agencies? Which private organization has own
curriculum, own examination system and own way of teaching? No one. Either we
are following government rules or adapting international institutions path.
Obviously, SLC and other result
of those private schools are better, school teachers are punctual and school
environment is well furnished. Only physical presence does not full fill the
desire of those small kids. We see, playing in sand is more enjoyable than
skipping on red carpet in room for them. Children are happier to run towards
dragonfly with thread on its tail than looking Discovery Channel in TV. Let
those children to go in Nature as more as possible. Are we looking those things
in private school?
We, own named elite, are trying
to misapprehension many other Nepalese regarding the concept of Education. We
know education is the key of success. After each political change, always one
new group of people ups their status and trying to pretend and start their
wildness. That is the reason; so many private schools were open after 2046
movement in city area. I know people have right to choose schools for their
kids but state cannot be so cruel on these matters. So I have note of descent
on government’s way of dealing to government run schools and private schools.
This is the problem because of nature of our state.
I suggest to open new private or
government schools who can run on sustainable development model, green school
model, one skill base model and own curriculum model. Any private school owners
are ready to invest on it? Sure, it might not give profit that much, cannot
start with one small dark room, cannot manage without giving salaries to
staffs. It will be real school, real in the sense of children cognitive
development, social development, ethical development and development of natural
conservation skills. I know no one present school owners are not ready on it,
we need other owners who really loves and believes on education and its power
to change the people, belief and emotion toward positive direction.
