Abstract

Quality education is a matter of great concern and what quality means in education is a subject of intense debate.  UNESCO conceptualized quality education as, learning to know, learning to do, learning to live together, and learning to be. Making quality school education accessible to every child in India is a big challenge as the school system faces a huge shortage of trained teachers, a lack of basic infrastructure, school dropouts, and the socio-economic condition of the student’s parents.  Such is the reason for the undesirable literacy level.  The non-availability of quality Early Childhood Care and Education is a matter of great concern in the country as it has a long-term impact on children. Teachers and headteachers are the most important pillar of the school and need to be strengthened through quality capacity-building training.  National Education Policy 2020, emphasis on quality education. Hence making quality education accessible to every child will depend on how the policy [1] is implemented in reality. This article is based on a secondary source and tries to analyze the issues and challenges of providing quality education to every child in India.
