One of my observations about education spend by parents is as follows.
-Parents are reluctant to spend money for the school education, but save the entire wealth and money to give as donations in higher education to get a seat in MBBS or Engg.
Is it because of lack of dispoable funds from the limited salary during the early married life?
Or
Is it coz they want to wait and see the aptitude of the kid and then invest in their education?
Or
Is it just that they want to save the money for future education?
What do you think may be the reason?
Are u willing to pay a higher fees for your child's school education or extracurricular education?
I think, if the foundation is laid well, even for a higher cost, it can probably reduce the need for donations or capitation fees in higher education.
Our school education system needs quality enhancement and above all professionalising the teaching career in order to attract good quality and qualified teachers into it.
Well, my above observations may not be very relevant for urban educated population who try to spend any amounts for their only child. But take the case of middle class or semi urban families, it will be true!
