Özet:

 

In India where the state is mandated to provide free, compulsory and
quality education to all children up to the age of fourteen years, parents
still chose to send their children for the private tutoring with the hope of
high academic achievement. There has been repeated reference to the adverse
effects of this shadow system of education, but students still continue to
access these services. Moreover, there is a sudden increase in demand of this
shadow with the massification of school education. Specially at the secondary
stages, which are considered most crucial for a student, defining his
eligibility in global job market at this early stage itself. The study examines the perceptions of parents and students studying in
higher secondary classes, residing in New Delhi towards the need of private
supplementary tutoring. Additionally, the study also aims to uncover the impact
of the supplementary tutoring(if any) on the academic performance of these
students. Attempt has been made to study the nature and demand of private
supplementary tutoring through semi-structured interview schedule presented to
students and parents; of government and private schools alike. The data
gathered reveals answers to three key research questions: the individual and
household related factors affecting the demand for private supplementary
tutoring; the reasons for rise in demand of supplementary tutoring at higher
secondary levels; and the students' perception on the impact this typical
tutoring model has on their academic achievement. The four A's- Accessibility, Availability,
Affordability and Acceptability are also important factors associated to the
study of individual and household need and choice of private supplementary
education scenario. .
