Kerala's
achievements in social development and
quality of life are, no doubt, inspiring
and encouraging. The state has achieved
a human development index comparable
to the developed countries of the World.
Prof. Amartya Sen has attributed these
achievements largely to the priority
which the state has accorded to high
literacy among all Indian states and
education for a long time. The society
attaches so much importance to education
that the school in Kerala is really
the nucleus of the social microcosm.
Better education kindles the aspirations
of the people and the main concern is
on how to improve the quality of education.
