Question Description
Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question.One of the clauses of the Punjab Government's ambitious smart school policy was making English compulsory as the medium of instruction. The step was intended to make school education more equitable for the poor by bridging the yawning socio-economic gap created by the mushrooming and much sought-after swanky 'English-medium' schools. However, in a step back, the state government has now decided to do away with this mandatory clause. It has given in to the pressure of teachers' unions which have been opposing the move, and saying that the pupils be taught in their mother tongue till Class V.Rather, giving the government school students the option of choosing English or Punjabi/Hindi as a medium of instruction only complicates the situation. It is fraught with a set of perils that the Education Department is ill-equipped to handle. The paucity of teachers qualified to teach in the English medium makes it an uphill task.Providing nearly 3,000 government schools with smart equipment worth crores of rupees — computers, WiFi, Internet, etc — is not enough to benefit the little ones in achieving the appropriate learning levels.
