  1. Priorities: basic education is more urgent than IITs by a huge margin. Our students have the highest student-suicide rate in the world on the government’s own published stats. Teacher training courses are absurdly inappropriate for India where it exists, especially on grounds of huge classroom numbers, severe climate conditions, ill-equipped schools, and politicised employment by uninterested personnel. Our substitution of percentages for education makes us the laughing stock of the world, because we have worked out ways to acquire the percentages while being quite uneducated. The best offer on the market at the moment is the SERVE system, “Where the child is without fear”, now to be presented as an eprogramme. The last thing young India needs is more IITs. The first is education – real education – for the child.
