Why India’s education debate needs evidence beyond enrolment

Education policy affects students through classrooms, teachers, assessments, technology and the cost of continuing study. A new initiative or a political statement should therefore be judged through learning outcomes, access, staffing and the experience of families rather than enrolment numbers alone.\n\nThe same principle applies to examination security and admissions. Students need clear rules, correction channels and timely decisions because a delay can cost an academic year. Institutions should explain how a policy will work for students who lack devices, money or local support.\n\nThe Greater India will connect education announcements to the people expected to live with their consequences.
