Quality in Education

Abstract

Since the 1990s, programmes aimed at universalising elementary eduction in India have increasingly dichotomised ‘quality’ and ‘equality’ and heightened, a view of education which is essentially instrumental. The paper argues that this opposition is mistaken and that equality itself requires a nuanced approach which reflects the quality of education as an involvement in the long-term growth of the person. An example of how a school may be knowledgeably structured for educational quality, given the social reality of entrenched gender inequality, is discussed.
