How LEAD came into being?
Over the years, India has made significant progress in providing access to education, recording near-universal enrolment at the elementary level. The enrolment figures at secondary levels have also gone up even as the average annual drop rate remains about 18 percent. The country today has over 15.51 lakh schools with nearly 25 crore students enrolled in them. Of them, there is a sizeable chunk of affordable private schools catering to the educational needs of the students. But, the quality of education, acute shortage of qualified teachers, lack of infrastructure, and other facilities remain a major concern.
