I have seen that kids from low-income families have difficulty in learning. These kids are inhibited about where they come from and feel lost. Kids in my school have always complained about the lack of clean toilets, fans and lights in the classroom. And even though we have taken the matter to the administration, nothing has been done. All government schools have a budget for buying equipment required to conduct practical sessions, but they don’t do so. When we are burdened with other work like election duties, paper correction, etc, it is the children who suffer most. If we miss four days of work, it takes 15 days to catch up. And, when a teacher is replaced, the rhythm of learning is disrupted. I believe that if teachers in government schools get better support, they can function just as well as private schools.
