The Increasing burden of education

Yes it is right in these days marks above than 95% is very common. Here one girls top in state board examination and get 100 marks in Hindi. I am surprising how some one can be so perfect that he don't do any single mistake in language paper. 100% marks is possible in subject like math Phsics and other numerical based subjects. So to remove pressure from the child it is must to think about marking pattern. Government is doing too much to improve government school and some results is also come out. Student of government schools ranking in merit list. 

with the government making various efforts there is still a need to make the teachers aware of what kind of pressure a child can undertake. 

Without actually understanding the child’s psychology the progress of a child cannot be ensured. 

A lot of changes are needed in our education system which aim at holistic development of child and not making robots.

Our old education system Gurukul was a perfect education system. Awareness among about system of education is increasing but it is not enough. Here still government are fighting for philosophy.Curriculum changes as the government changes

With all the minuses our education system still works and if we look around educated Indians are known to be one of the most committed and intelligent work force around the world. It is possibly because of the adverse conditions that they evolve by looking for every opportunity that seems workable . Nothing like stress to sharpen your wit and output.

Agreed.! 

But amount of such indivisuals is very less as compared to the enormous population that we have. The count of such people are very low despite our capability to produce intelligent smart individuals.

And if I am not mistaken, many countries are trying to follow Indian system of education. Some years back I came across an article which described why Indian education was better than Chinese system of education.

But I do agree with the view that some parents give unnecessary academic pressure to their children, without understanding their potential.

That s always so because imbalance is a reality of life. But we see a lot more educated people especially women in smaller towns who study in government schools and colleges but outperform those who have studied in expensive private institutions. There is of course always a need for improving and upgrading the system.

@Jabeen, you are right , Chinese system is exactly like their politics of dominance. They pressurize the children , even going to the extent of physical punishment when they don't perform as required.

Indian education should give more importance to sports and allied co curricular activities than they are giving at present.

Current education system is quite useless as majority of the graduates, be it in any field,m are found to be unemployable and have to be trained again before they can be put to work. This is probably because the entire system revolves around scores and marks and not on understanding concepts or developing creative skills. So unless focus is given on developing creativity and imagination through education, it would not improve things much.
