Educators view
I would like to tell educators to open themselves and view things through children's eye. Education is now become a burden to the kids brain. Children are unable to cope with their day to day exercises, with loads of books and notes. Lot of unwanted knowledge is being input, whereas the necessary ones are not being stressed. I would like to tell the education department to look into this matter and help the kids with the needed knowledge. Education should be given with entertainment and related with real life situations.

History should be reduced and not much stressed, necessary topics in geography, civics and economics can be a part but extra information should be given only when they are interested and the rest should be deleted.

English as a subject is very good, but we should have some more sections (spoken english, personality and etiquette etc) should be included. As we all know those are the most necessary things in their future. Necessary mathematics have to be taught in an easier way in which all the students can grasp it easily.

Science is needed in life but if taught related with real life situations would be more interesting and easier for kids to understand.

Computers is yet another subject in which schools are teaching kids more in a theoritical manner, due to which children are getting bored and hating the most essential subject in life, in this era. This subject should be starting only from the high school level and children should have access to do it practically always and teachers should see that it is being done by each student with more projects and programs. The marks should be included in the report card for their main totals, so that they will also learn it with more dedication and interest.

As a good parent and teacher,I would like to tell that each school should have a counsellor and advisor whom children can communicate easily without fear. Every school should have a child opinion forum and those opinions if necessary should be forwarded to necessary departments and actions should be taken.

In my view Education should be made universal through out INDIA.
The quality and quantity of education in North India is more than South India(Bangalore).When people complete their 12th and apply for BE their we find more difficult to complete with North Indian students. If the education is same we can complete with them.

The thought is awesome. But i feel that parents may not support it even if schools are ready to implement it because parents today are putting the burden of their dreams on the tender shoulders of their kids.
