Why child education is important?

How does education benefit us?

Education is just not about gaining knowledge.

It is a weapon that provides people with knowledge, skill, technique, information, helps them to know their rights and duties toward their family and society as well as the country. 

People need the education to survive in this competitive world. Good and proper education is very important for all of us. It is the process of gaining knowledge, values, skills, and moral habits. 

Education is an essential part of a society’s growth and progress. When nobody is illiterate and everyone is educated, they can contribute to their families and society in different aspects and fields.

Here are some reasons showing why education is important

1. More employment opportunities: Finding jobs is not an easy task especially in times of economic disturbance. 

You need to compete with hundreds of other candidates for a vacant position. Greater number of people applying for the low-paying entry-level post. 

However, with the right educational and qualification background, there are more chances for you to land and fulfilling a job. 

You would like to find a way to stand out from the hundreds of candidates. Educate yourself and get as many qualifications and experience as possible.

• Socialization: We humans are very social beings and the main concept of socialization takes place in early childhood. 

Socialization helps to develop self-confidence in your children by wiping out their shy nature.

• Securing higher income: People with higher qualifications and experience are more likely to get high-paying jobs. 

Delicate your time and study hard to acquire knowledge and reach a high level of competence. Your identity is what will motivate a potential employer to choose you above the other candidate. 

Studying hard throughout your school shows you are not scared of hard work and can fulfill your dreams. 

Once you are graduated you can start searching for jobs that will pay you sufficient income to fulfill your needs.

• Establishing problem-solving skills: The educational system teaches us how to develop critical and logical thinking and making independent decisions. 

If one has spent years educating themselves, then they should be able to make sound decisions on various issues like family issues, get a job, buy a car or house, etc. 

• Respect: The environment in preschool helps children to understand that the concept of respect is just not limited to people and belongings but also their environment.

• Improving the economy: People with good academic backgrounds tend to get more employment opportunities and well-paid jobs.

People who grew up in poverty but educated themselves have higher chances to transform their lives. Education helps countries grow economically.

What are the effects of lack of education?

Lack of education restricts an individual from reaching their full potential. Children who cannot go to school, miss out on the opportunities of progressing their skills and are unable to get dignified jobs. 

Lack of proper education and jobs can lead to social unrest and crimes, Curbing the progress of the country.

We need to understand the benefits of education. Less educated people live shorter lives than those who are educated more. It is such a huge loss for the people and the country. 

Poor health leads to an interruption in employment which leads to poor health of the individual and his family. It even hampers the economic growth of the country.

The young generation never learns how to manage funds and they run out of money and have no savings because of a lack of financial education.

It is also the reason for the increase in the population. 

In India, many people consider females as a burden to their parents. 

Blind faith exists in our country and there is only one way to tackle it by providing education to those who need it.

In developed and developing countries children do not have an approach to primary education because of inequality that originates in sex, health, and social character.

Another dangerous effect of lack of education is the increase in the crime rate. India is considered one of the countries in the world where the crime rate increases yearly.

Teenagers are getting involved in crimes like stealing drugs, rape cases, and committing murder. 

How can these problems be solved?

Children need to be taught that it is one of the main problems and this needs to be changed as they hold the destiny of the future generations in their hands.

One of the major problems in India is poverty. Government must need to introduce new schemes to safeguard the future of children from low-income families.

In government schools, infrastructure must be improvised.

Everybody has the right to be educated but the value of education is high and the ones who need it are not able to access it.

There should be separate schools for those who are physically and mentally challenged. 

Parents just need to understand the benefits and the importance of education and must encourage their children to get educated as this will ensure a bright future not only for their children and family but for the country also.

To end discrimination, it is necessary that every individual in the country is educated and has access to better sustenance opportunities. 

We “Ek Parivartan Foundation” as a part of society established a school for children. 

We are teaching them the importance of education which will help them to build interest in becoming educated for a better livelihood. And the most significant step is to increase government spending on education. 

This will help improve the government schools; the expanded budget can help in training teachers, providing books and uniforms on time, maintaining better infrastructure in the government schools like clean, toilets, handwashing facilities, drinking water, and play areas.
