Our schooling vs. now schooling

I guess we are living in the world where time is always a crunch and to be honest sometime we don’t pay too much attention related to such kind of issues especially

when our kids or dear ones are concerned and just accept the fact or maybe I should call a lifestyle paybacks to live in a Satellite City as a mandate. But I think we should think

for a second about our schooling vs. now schooling.

There is no equation where we can compare our education with our kids beat any inflation formulae. Just as an example my engineering fee from a Premier Institute (within a city which is seventh largest metropolis in India) for whole 4 years is almost equivalent to one month KG fee of my little buddy here in Gurgaon (which is again close to 2-3 times that of Delhi schools regular fees). I purposefully don’t want to take names of any school in Gurgaon as more or less they all have the same fee structure with regular yearly increments. Now the question is should we think about this issue and action plans or just let it go under the carpet. Also as a matter of fact the issue is not only related to affordability but also regulatory, real estate prices is one such example.

The solution to this issue is not from an individual’s boycott from the school but to stand for regularizing the education sector in Gurgaon be it a private or public schools/institutes as the land, license costs etc. granted to these schools are all subsidized. Schools serve the vital role in the society and ideally the prime vision mission of the schools should not just serve as being a commercial platform but to focus more in honing the new upbeat India.

Please share your thoughts or insights on this and if there is anything which we can do about it.

Even persistent and consistent gush of water results a signature on the stone so I believe there is nothing which is impossible in today’s modern world.
