Delhi govt schools lead in Class III; private schools excel in higher grades: NCERT survey on competency development
Government-run schools in Delhi have outperformed government-aided, central government and privately run schools in the Capital at the foundational stage (Class 3). This is as per the Parakh Rashtriya Sarvekshan 2024, a survey conducted by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT). This is the first time since 2017, when the NCERT started the nationwide survey to assess competency development at different levels — Foundational (Class 3), Preparatory (Class 6), and Middle (Class 9) stages — that government schools performed better than other schools in the city. However, private schools took the lead in the Preparatory and Middle stages, the report released on Monday shows. During the survey, students and teachers from 1,263 schools were surveyed and assessed. In 2017 and 2021, when the survey was conducted, under the title 'National Achievement Survey' (NAS), the performance of students in Delhi government schools was below the national average at the Foundational Level for Language, Maths, and Environmental Science. Foundational Level In the latest survey, at 71%, Class 3 students performed the best in identifying shapes, patterns in their surroundings, and numbers. At 43%, the poorest performance was recorded in doing simple transactions such as using money up to Rs 100. At 64%, the students also scored 3% above the national average in the Language category. In Maths too, the score was 1% above the national average recorded at 61%. In line with the national trend, the national average performance of private schools in the city remained behind that of government schools for the Language and Maths categories. Preparatory Level In this stage, a different trend has been witnessed. Delhi government schools take a backseat in all parameters in comparison to all other schools. Barring Language, the performance of Delhi government schools was below the national average in the other two categories — Maths, and The World Around Us. Private schools took the lead in the Capital at 67%, above the national average of 60% in Language; 55% in Maths, against the national average of 49%; and 59% for The World Around Us, which is 7% higher than the national average. Middle level Assessment in this stage reveals that while Delhi government school students performed better than the national average by 7%, private schools in the city outperformed in the assessed subjects: Maths, Language, Social Science, and Science. These schools performed above the national average in all the subjects, topping in the Language category at 76%. Among other key insights are that the central government schools in all categories in the Capital performed below the national average. In competency assessment for Class 6, children fared worst in representing commonly used fractions in daily life as parts of unit wholes and in number lines, with only 26% of students answering correctly. Meanwhile, Class 9 students found it the most difficult to apply percentages in real life, with only 28% giving the right answers. Their performance was the best, on the contrary, in Language competence. Recommendations 'Auditory, visual, and kinesthetic activities' such as 'interactive story-telling, picture-word association, and tactile learning materials' as part of building a 'multi-sensory learning approach' have been recommended to improve the abilities of students in Class 3. Schools do not provide special accommodations for students with special needs, according to 51% of respondents. To this, the NCERT has suggested 'to cultivate an inclusive culture that values diversity and supports all students'. Three key areas were identified for Class 6 and 'innovative teaching strategies', improving parent and community participation, and 'continuous professional development' have been recommended. Meanwhile, for Class 9 students in Delhi, skill education for 'diverse career paths' is a key suggestion.
