By drawing on quantitative data and qualitative analyses of five major national education policies implemented in India over the last 15 years, this comprehensive volume explores their impact on teacher quality and perceived effectiveness, explaining how this relates to variations in student performance. Responding to a national agenda to increase the quality of the Indian teacher workforce, Teacher Quality and Education Policy in India critically questions the application of human capital theory to Indian education policy. Chapters provide in-depth and strategically structured analyses of five national policies – including the recently approved National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 – to see how Indian policymakers use teacher quality as a driver and measurement of education and national economic development. Ultimately, the text offers evidence-based policy recommendations to improve teacher quality in India, suggesting that while all five policies have contributed significant frameworks and recommendations for teacher quality reform, they have failed to move beyond a symbolic function. Given its rigorous methodological approach, this book will be a valuable addition to the under-researched question of education policymaking in postcolonial contexts. It will be an indispensable resource not only for scholars working on policymaking in the Indian context, but also for those working at the intersection of education, teacher development, and policymaking in developing countries.

This book pays attention to education in India as part of several overlapping stories developed along different axes: stories of dissent, contestations, appropriation and social action. It historicises the enterprise of formal education by paying attention to the numerous policy shifts. Further, it theorises the education policy discourse by analysing the ways in which education is increasingly being shaped by international/transnational knowledge production, actors and norms. Focusing on the cultural politics of education policy production, circulation and translation across different contexts, the book revisits some of the long-standing and unresolved debates on social reforms, justice, nationalism and mobility. Evolution of ideas such as mass education, national education, adult literacy and education through public-private-partnerships showcase the momentous shifts in education policy over the course of last century. Ideas, institutional and economic arrangements, administrative formulations and frameworks for implementation make frequent appearances in the cultural as well as political reading of education policy. In a departure from the traditional policy research, this work sees policy as socially and culturally constructed; connected to questions of power, context and struggle; and part of a number of processes at large.

Education's ultimate goal is to foster each student's individual growth and development by helping them achieve a sense of inner harmony. The goal is to help the kid grow up to be a well-rounded individual who can work well with others and appreciate other cultures. Value education is an all-out effort and movement in which older, more experienced people help younger people in settings like homes, schools, clubs, and religious and other organizations to articulate their core beliefs, consider and acquire new beliefs that are more conducive to long-term happiness, and act accordingly. Therefore, what is needed is value-education, which is concerned with making deep quality a living worry for pupils. Value Inspiring learning is how we instil moral principles in our students. The concept revolves around the method used to instil moral principles to create increasingly polite & majority-rule social systems via formal education. Education based on these values promotes resilience and understanding that extends well beyond the social, political, and strict distinctions, placing special emphasis on the protection of human rights, the protection of ethnic minorities and the neediest groupings, and the preservation of the environment. The hope is that future generations will contribute to society by becoming model citizens who uphold high moral standards. Similar goals have been pursued by approaches that emphasize morality, character development, and theory-based instruction. The goal of this kind of education is to help students become contributing members of society who are also compassionate, fair, and courageous.
