Elementary Education in West Bengal

Elementary Education is the foundation on which the development of every citizen and a nation as a whole is built on. Considering its immense power, elementary education was universalised in most of the developed nations as an engine of growth, and, in the post-war reconstruction period, right to education was recognized in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the United Nations. After Independence in India, Universalisation of Elementary Education (UEE) was accepted as an important objective of the nation, and Free and Compulsory Education became the constitutional commitment of India. Under this perspective, an attempt has been made in this book to review the present Elementary Education Scenario in the state of West Bengal in India, which was once upon a time considered as the cultural and educational centre in South-East Asia. This book is primarily targeted for avid researchers and readers in the areas of education in general and elementary education in particular.
