Abstract
The problem of wastage in Elementary Education System is becoming gradually very serious, across the world. Various methods have been proposed by researchers to measure real wastage in an Indian educational system, which seem to be inadequate because of multiple reasons. One of the main reasons is the occurrence of different type of wastages in the elementary education system. Further, there no reliable and consistent database, of educational statistics, that are available. In this paper, we wish to propose a method for measuring the real wastage by using the appropriate statistical technique of sampling.
Highlights
The goal of universal elementary education can be achieved by two major components namely universal enrollment and universal retention
In order to measure the performance of elementary education system, we should measure these two parameters. the performance of elementary education depends upon the magnitude of the educational wastage
Educational wastage cab be classified in two parts i.e. Internal wastage and External wastage
Summary
The goal of universal elementary education can be achieved by two major components namely universal enrollment and universal retention. Internal Wastage: This wastage occurs when enrolled children leave the school after spending some time or complete the course successfully after. Spending some more years than the prescribed duration This wastage reflects our efforts to retain the enrolled children of the age group 6-14 years in school, complete their eight year elementary education and ensure them of quality education so that they are able to promote to the level of education. This is the pre-mature withdrawal of children from school at any stage before the completion for any reason, except death and transferring to another school This type of wastage occurs in external wastage . Promotion: This is the wastage in which children complete the elementary education successfully but not transected to the upper level education This wastage occurs when children leave their studies after taking primary/elementary education. For effective management of an educational system, it is required that the retention rate should be improved by reducing educational wastage while maintaining the quality of the system at reasonable input costs
