Ep 3. Anil Swarup: What Samagra Shiksha 2.0 Must Do Differently

In the Conversation

In conversation with Shri Anil Swarup, former Secretary of School Education, Government of India and the architect behind Samagra Shiksha, this episode reflects on what Samagra Shiksha 1.0 achieved and what it left unfinished.

The programme successfully scaled access from pre-primary to Class 12 and set up over 15 lakh smart classrooms. The question it didn't answer is whether children are learning better as a result.
