The Digest - June/July 2017

In this issue

Come July, and the euphoria amongst children is infectious as they head back to their cherished classrooms and yet again be in the company of their friends with a bagful of tales to tell. Such innocence, such joy and such truthfulness - if only it could be preserved for a lifetime! Schools, I believe, have a great role to play in preserving, shaping and reinforcing values in children. However, is enough being done? Most of the private schools today are mired with the regulation of school fees by the government.. This has been a bone of contention between the government and the private schools for long now. The government, giving into the demands of parents frustrated with regular fee hikes, is taking steps towards fee regulation. However, the private schools in the country argue that in wake of the facilities they provide, the fee regulation is certainly threatening their sustainability, and challenging their very survival.

The Digest Magazine Description:

Today in the dynamic world of education, there’s a pressing need. A need to connect.
Everyone is involved with education and yet we continue to think and operate in silos. We felt this
too, and thought of a platform where all of us are together as one - sharing ideas and creating
synergies. The Digest is an opportunity to all of us to integrate ourselves more with education,
experience new ideas, share our thoughts and be part of the process that single-handedly builds
tomorrow.
From thoughts of our worthy educators to students’ and parents’ opinions, with a bevy of exciting
and fun reads - The Digest offers something to everyone. The exciting part - all the articles are
creations of people just like you, weaved with a bit of magic by our editorial team. Thus, with its
very essence, The Digest hopes to fill the gap long experienced and be the ultimate connector in
this realm.
Nothing is more exhilarating to us than bringing all together and let your ideas reach communities
worldwide. The Digest is not just a magazine, it is a culmination of your efforts and the force to
your voice. It is more yours than ours!
