Results Framework Document (RFD) for Department of School Education &Literacy(2009-2010)

Section 4:

Description and Definition of Success Indicators

and Proposed Measurement Methodology

India is committed to the goal of universal elementary education for all children. This goal is part of the

Education for All (EFA) goals adopted at the World Education Forum, Dakar in April 2000. The EFA goals

include, inter alia achieving universal elementary education by the year 2015, ensuring equitable access to

appropriate learning and life skill programmes for young people and adults, achieving a 50% improvement

in adult literacy by 2015, achieving gender equality in education by 2015 and improving all aspects of

quality of education. The Millennium Development Goals (MDG) also includes universal primary education

and promotion of gender equality and empowerment of women.

Indias progress on the EFA and MDG Goals has to be viewed in the context of its federal democratic

structure enshrined in its Constitution. The structure, which is multi layered, provides space and mandate,for decision making and implementation of various policies and programmes, to various players

Governments, non-Governmental Organizations and civil society at large. While Government Central,

State and local bodies plays the major role, abundant space has been created for the non-Governmental

players, not only to directly participate in the process of educational development, but also to forge

appropriate links with Government programmes and strategies. As a result, almost every educational

programme of the Government, from pre-school to senior secondary, has involvement of community,

especially at the ground level, which has also played an important role in various mobilization campaigns

and ensuring delivery of service.

While policies and programmes in India for education precede the Dakar Declaration, they have received

much greater attention and focus after India committed itself to the Declaration. This is reflected in muchhigher resource allocation, both by the Centre and the State Governments, including earmarking of funds for

education (Education cess), pronouncement of new policies and strategies, greater involvement of civil

society, stronger monitoring mechanisms and development of strong advocacy and awareness campaigns for

achieving Education for All.

Universalisation of elementary education has been achieved to a very large extent, especially in terms of

access to schooling and improvement in gross enrolment ratio, especially of girls and those belonging to the

marginalized group. With the enactment of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act,

2009, it is expected that issues of drop out, out-of-school children, quality of education and availability of

trained teachers would be addressed in the short to medium term. Gender parity, especially at the elementary

stage has improved appreciably. The Gender Parity Index, which was 0.80 in 200-01 for primary increased

to 0.94 by 2006-07. This has been result of a large number of programmes initiated specifically for

education for girls and focus on gender issues in general education programmes such as the SSA. The

Department is also poised to implement the Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan in the secondary

education sector.

Programmes for lifelong learning for youth and adolescents have received their due focus. Adult education,

especially of women, has received further impetus with the launch of Saakshar Bharat, a centrally

sponsored scheme with a budget outlay of Rs 6000 crore for the period 2007-12. The objective of the

programme is to impart functional literacy to 70 million adults in the age group of 15 35 years by 2012; 60million will be women, and special attention will be given to disadvantaged and marginalized social groups.

This programme will show definite positive results not only towards quantitative improvements but also

towards reduction in disparities across gender, social groups and regions.

Section 5:Specific Performance Requirements from other Departments

1. Most of the programmes/schemes of the Department of School Education & Literacyare implemented through State/UT Governments. Right from the formulation of thescheme, the Department has to rely heavily upon the State/UT Governments and the localbodies for planning and implementation. Release of funds by the Government of India iscontingent upon the utilisation of the previous instalments and other necessary documentsbeing received from the State/UT Governments in time. The exchange of information andfulfilment of various procedural requirements by the State Governments remain a bigchallenge.2. Empowerment and capacity building of PRIs by Ministry of Panchayati Raj and StateGovernments is essential for improving services delivery of school education and literacy.3. Supply of good quality food grains in time by the FCI has an important bearing on theimplementation of the Mid Day Meal Scheme.4. Convergence with the Total Sanitation Campaign and Drinking Water Programme ofthe Ministry of Rural Development is essential for providing sufficient drinking water andtoilet facilities in elementary schools.5. Broadband connectivity in Government and Government aided secondary and highersecondary schools is a critical factor affecting the success of the ICT programme.
