Schools are the foundation on which a generation is built and sustained due to the gracious efforts of the teachers and parents alike. Without schools, society as we know it would perish and transform into something that none of us would be too keen to acquaint ourselves with. The main aspect about schools is the children.
Children are said to be the reflection of god in this complicated world. It is our duty to give them our unconditional love and support. Along with that it is also of the utmost importance that each and every child receives an education that is decent and prepares him/her for the rigors of the world. If children are not given proper education then more often than not they fail to make a decent living and fall into things that are unbecoming of a person who is supposed to have a good character.
Education is one of the sectors in India where diversity is seemingly playing spoilsport. India is home to one of the largest uneducated populations in the world. The reason is manifold. Firstly the economically backward classes are forced to send their young kids to work for reasons of survival. Then there is the government which has consistently failed to take any concrete steps to further education in India. However, the times are changing and the new government is showing signs of being totally dedicated to eradicating poverty and all its by-products from the country.
Take the case of Mumbai; some of the best IB schools in Mumbai have opened up and they offer quality services in children’s education. They have a trained workforce which is specially trained to handle children belonging to all age groups. The teachers at these schools not only teach the children about the basics of mathematics and language but they also include some practical lessons of life in their teaching. Also part from the usual subjects, the subject of value and ethics is also given some importance, after all it not the knowledge of person but the way he/she carries themselves that reveal the most intricate things about a person. Teaching children about values and ethics from such a young age enforces a code of good behaviour which they automatically uphold throughout the rest of their lives.
The surge of some of the best IB schools in Mumbai has resulted in the other schools picking up the pace and taking their quality up a notch to provide education to the children under their care. This has only benefitted the children and other schools because their quality has risen considerably. Although most people still prefer sending their children to schools other than an IB school, the trend is slowly but steadily shifting in the favour of IB schools.
