Access to schooling is a pre-condition for educational progress but not a sufficient condition. Adequate infrastructure facilities and effective management are equally important to translate the efforts into educational progress. The book examines availability of infrastructure facilities for secondary schools, besides looking at extent of transition, drop-outs and retention. It also examines performance of students in public examinations and the extent and nature of private tuition. A range of management aspects of secondary education including administrative structures, inspection and supervision, planning and management of curriculum and textbooks, and teacher management are elucidated.
