Introduction: 'Rural education system' accounting with low turnout of pro impact and it's the process of finding the solutions is always on anvil. Many reasons could be noted and as the following are the few. Any how you could see a good number of students overcoming all the limitations and proving themselves by achieving good position in the future. It's the negative environment which causes unlearning good things in life.

What are the challenges of education in rural India and how technology can help overcome them


For the large majority of the population living in rural areas, education is highly dependent on government-run or aided schools and non-governmental organisations. But rural areas still face various barriers that directly impact the country’s literacy rate. The National Education Policy 2020 emphasises digital learning as an alternative to the conventional classroom model but implementing this in rural India will face some challenges.


Financial issues: To start with, meagre incomes leads to education taking a backseat. Parents tend to see education as an expense rather than an investment. They would rather have the children work and earn. When it comes to higher education, lack of good institutes close by means students have to look at shifting to cities, which adds to their expenses. This leads to low rates of enrollment and higher dropout rates.

Lack of guidance: Students in smaller regions have great potential and are motivated to study but lack right mentoring. This is required not just for the children but also for their parents.



Lack of infrastructure and faculty: Children have limited or no access to basic learning tools such as well-equipped classrooms, computers, labs, playgrounds, among other things. Often, the teachers are often not qualified or do not turn up, leading to a poor quality of education. This also leads to low morale among students to attend school.


Gender inequality: In some places, girls are not allowed to go to school. Or if allowed, it is only upto a certain age. They are not allowed to move out of their hometown for higher education or better jobs.

Self Esteem: Low self eteem among rural students is also one of the main reason for their backlog in the areas of education and immediate result expectation, and lack of mentoring.
