He cited the recent achievement of Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangaluru, which has been ranked eighth in the list of world’s best small universities. The minister said the objective of education is to bring a good human being out of the system.
Javadekar also emphasised the need for quality leadership in teachers and headmasters for reforming the education system. The minister said the government has decided to have a separate cadre of headmasters so that a teacher becoming head master at the age of 40-45 will have a chance for another 15-20 years for devoting himself in providing quality education.
