Education v/s literacy- concern of school - life line of parents

Being literate is not the same as being educated. Education is more of a process than an ability. It's a cycle: observe -> learn -> understand -> apply -> observe. Literacy is a tool in this process. Your choice of education is academic in this process .

We need to work hand in hand.....

 It is important to understand this. Literacy is not the only way to be educated. Suppose you want to be an amazing cook? You have to burn your fingers, burn the food, burn a few utensils, know the difference between salt and lemon and so on.
Richard Branson- CEO of Virgin Airlines-
Richard Branson in his own words :
"I have never been shy in sharing my opinion about education. I wasn’t inspired at school. In fact I started my first business, Student Magazine, at the age of 15 in part to campaign against the schooling of the day. At the time, I was given an ultimatum: 'stay in school and give up the magazine, or pursue the magazine and leave school'. I chose to leave and have never looked back."

The celebrated entrepreneur recently participated in a debate:"Is education keeping up with the 21st century? "

" We need to move away from spoon-feeding stale and standardize curriculums and turn students into professional thinkers who have full responsibility for their own understanding".

School with focus on STEM, Innovative entertaining model for KIDS to get involved-parent's desire and market's need

Kids start going to school for many reasons. Each school adopts syllabus, to take the child to next level. Some elementary basics are necessary to keep the child in discipline. We have subject teachers in secondary , higher studies for different subjects. They take child deep into the subject but its relation to present time or its application to present time or use of this information to solve real life problem and  link is missed. Celebrating invention, inspiring youth-Lemmelson-MIT Inven Team students at White House Science Fair-Rescue operating-Robot Educating students in four specific disciplines; - science, technology, engineering and mathematics- in an interdisciplinary and application in real life - approach,  is necessary. Simply parting with knowledge or information to students, passing with high grades , without knowing the art of implementing, use the knowledge will lead us no where.
