Achieving Millennium Development goals is central to achieving Education for All. Societies and States in various parts of the world, particularly in developing countries, adopt several policies and strategies for achieving the primary goals of achieving equity, quality and access in education. But still wide inequality exists among different sections of society. There are hard-to-reach groups in society such as minorities, backward classes, physically challenged persons and women who are still not been able to access school education in spite of many programmes being devised to benefit them from formal education system. In this context, open schooling, as a viable tool has been playing a vital role in providing access for the disadvantaged sections of society.
