Education quality--why schooling​

Recently one of the topper of the IIT JEE Advanced revealed that he went to school only upto 10th standard and he studied 11th and 12th by home schooling and got the certificate from NIOS. Is it correct that a student clearing a national level examination without going to school.Then what is the purpose of schools.what are the benefits a student gets from the school.what values are added by the school to the students. Can a home replace the school.These are some of the questions arises in my mind. First of all the particular student isn't exposed to the classroom learning atmosphere,the dynamic situation of the school, interactive ambience in the school, sports participation,and many more valuable inputs from the school.By escaping from the school, what is the use of clearing the JEE Advanced and joining the premier institute. Let us not carried away by the race of joining the premier institutes​ without schooling.

Education quality--who will decide

Tamil nadu is witnnessing a sea of changes inthe school education field.To avoid the competition among students and to avoid stress among students of the school community it has done away with the ranking system.The government has also decided to revise the syllabus of all classes from Kto12 for all subjects.The whole purpose of revamp of the school education system is to improve the quality of the school students.The term quality is an elusive concept and it means different things to different people.How to improve the quality of of students, how-to improve the quality of of schools is not an one shot affair.It will be the result of continuous improvement of the school or college by all stakeholders including the government and the society in which the system is functioning.
