Schooling of Scheduled Tribes in India
- July 3, 2018
The Scheduled Tribe (ST) is one social group in India that faces the most difficult challenges in schooling. Though there are efforts being made to address some of these, like providing education in their native languages in the primary grades (I-III), there are many other challenges that keep emerging. The absence of a necessary number of teachers among them; the requirement that mathematics and other subjects be taught in the mainstream language, and; the imposition of the mainstream language in higher grades are some of the serious hurdles in the education of the tribal children.
