Challenges for the voluntary sector

 
The voluntary sector is working to improve educational standards in India in various ways.  These include:
 
 
  • Enforcing common minimum standards in schools.
  • Bringing education within the reach of children in the most remote and marginalized areas.
  • Developing transparency and accountability mechanisms that improve the quality of education.
  • Narrowing disparities in literacy levels based on gender, disability and economic status.
  • Empowering communities to take ownership for education, and empowering parents to hold schools accountable for education standards.
