Is there any need to open more schools ?

Recently Delhi's Education Minister has announced that Delhi Government will open ninety four more Government Schools in the national capital. I was thinking that this news is giving pleasure to me or it is just left side corner news of a newspaper. It has two aspects on its origin first is they are increasing the number of Government of schools okay that is really a big good news but what about quality teachers and education when the schools would be open. Second thing is that school will be filled very quickly because they are opening schools in the next coming session. Are they ready with all the essential elements.
Do you not think that we have to increase number of qualities in our education system instead of increasing number of schools. 
Check out the latest news of  The Times of India. 
By increasing more and more schools we should have to increase teachers simultaneously and as you already know that recruitment of quality teacher is also another problem for Indian education system.

I don't understand instead of providing better quality teachers to children they are increasing more schools. Please somebody explain them what is the real need of India's children. 

Right To Education shortly named by RTE act according to which every child of India have right of compulsory and free education. But what about quality of education and teachers. I remember one very interesting news of a news channel. The channel had surveyed a district of Uttar Pradesh. There was a primary school and a female teacher when she was just asked the simple spelling of the word " teacher " and you will be surprised to know that she told the reporter the spelling " techre ".

The reporter asked this stupid question to the teacher because he has noticed that the spelling of English she had written " Inglesh". You can wonder what will be the future of those innocent children who were studying in that class.

Why China is doing better in education sector ? The Answer.

Reading in the morning the education news of India and look what is it ? 
India lose once again ranking in higher studies.
According to an article published in The Economic Times dated 27th July 2012 .

Despite the English language advantage and the government's enhanced focus on higher studies, India's top educational and research institutes, including the IITs and IIMs, lag Chinese universities in global ranking.

Source : The Economic Times


Even after having English language advantage India takes only one position in The Times Education World University Ranking. There were 400 universities in the list. And big congratulations to China who has made its nine universities in the list. 
Another latest released of Top 50 Asian Universities China secured nine places because its nine universities and India none. 


Want to know why?
China's big investment in education sector makes it possible. China's expenditure in education from the central public budget reached more than 1.2 trillion yuan ($191 billion) during January-November last year, an increase of 25.8% from previous year, according to reports. Remember that this was their Central Government Education Budget.


And India has increased their Educational budget to Rs. 25,000 crore Central plus State government. I think China's success in education system is touching the sky.
