Free and compulsory education to all children up to the age of fourteen years is the commitment of the Constitution of India. The governments of India and state governments have initiated a number of programmes to achieve the goal of universalization of elementary education. Among them Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) is the recent addition. According to the handbook of education statistics (2013-14), 38.2 per cent of children in the state who had enrolled in Class I did not reach Class X and were thus, deprived of basic education. To improve retention in government schools, understanding the socio-demographic characteristics of the parents of school dropout children would be advantageous. For the purposes of the study, a field survey was conducted in 18 villages of six rural Mandals of Mahbubnagar district with a sample of 401 respondents. Study finding revealed that both boys and girls in the age group of six to 18 years were equally vulnerable to dropouts. About 90 per cent of the school dropout children were from the government schools and three in five children in the age group of 15 to 18 years were dropped out from the school

Family Leadership

Family leadership is one of the vital aspects that influences and determines both the wellbeing and successful education of a girl-child. Unfortunately, the role of family leadership in ensuring girls' education is oversimplified into getting girls enrolled in school rather than warranting their perseverance in learning and successful completion. As a result, many communities in Tanzania, especially those in rural and marginalized areas are experiencing persistent girl–child school dropouts. It is against this standpoint that we sought to find out how family leadership may influence secondary school girls’ dropouts. We also explored possible measures which should be employed to eliminate girl-child school dropouts. In conducting this study, we employed a mixed research approach and convergent parallel design. We collected data through interviews and questionnaires involving 143 respondents including girl students, teachers, heads of schools, and district educational officers. Our findings from this study indicate that while the government of Tanzania has made remarkable efforts to ensure girls’ continuity and successful completion of secondary education, there are a number of factors hindering girls’ continuity and completion of secondary education. Weak family leadership, the improper raising of the children, less emphasis and interest on the importance of girls’ education, limited cooperation between family leadership were among the reason for continuous girl-child school dropout. Hence, based on our findings and the significance of girl’s education as well as the role which parents should play in ensuring girls achievement of education, we appeal to various educational leaders, to make strategic efforts in raising more awareness among rural and marginalized communities about the importance of educating girls and the role of family leadership in bringing to an end the phenomena of girl-child school dropout which is catastrophic to the long-awaited sustainable development. Moreover, we call upon all parents, to make intentional efforts in mentoring and influencing girls to strive towards achieving formal education

Recently, there has been an increase of enrollment rate in government schools, as a result of fee free and expansion of compulsory basic education to form four in Tanzania. However, the completion rate of students is highly affected by extreme dropout rate. Researchers in previous studies have explored the causes of school dropout, and they came with general recommendation based on treatment measures. This study, however, deals with predictive measures in which classification algorithm is used in developing dropout predictive system. The targeted population of this study was obtained by employing purposive and non-probability sampling techniques. The study was guided by system theory and conducted in four councils of Tabora region in Tanzania because of high rate school dropout reported in the previous studies. After the analysis, it has been observed that social factors and academic factors have strong impact on the targeted variable dropout time. The study recommends the use of dropout predictive system in secondary schools so as to predict future outcomes of students earlier.

It is the passport to accelerate economic growth. It is the key in building human resource capital and human resource capital is a vital ingredient in building a nation. Universalization of elementary education has been a cherished national goal since 1950. There were various education commission and policies giving direction and guide lines as to how this national goal could be achieved. Many programmes have been taken up by the government to achieve UEE goal, to accomplish this goal article 21A of Indian constitution (eighty-sixth amendment) act, 2002 (w.e.f. 01 -04-2010) directs the state to provide free and compulsory education to all children till they complete the 14 years of age. In order to fulfil this constitutional obligation, the access to educational facilities has been improved to a large extent by establishing a number of schools and the required facilities and the enrolments there in have been increased tremendously. Development in education is an important indicator of overall development of a society. Lacks of proper educational facilities have been one of the major causes of backwardness of Indian masses. In the process of educational development, the basic foundation is to enhance the existing programmes. With a good elementary education, there will be smooth passage to secondary education. Hence, the most urgent need of the hour is to realize the importance of elementary education to accomplish the objective of developing country and enabling them to compete successfully in the race of civilization. We have to accede fully that elementary education is our weakest link. All the efforts to improve secondary and higher education will end fiasco without effective improvement in elementary education. In a sense, we can hold that without its improvement, the progress of the nation as a whole is quite unthinkable. Elementary education holds the key in the educational system of any country.

O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar as injunções da legislação educacional no movimento de democratização do direito à educação no Brasil. À luz da literatura da área, concebe-se a democracia e a ação colaborativa como fundamentos basilares tanto à garantia de direitos aos cidadãos, quanto à efetivação de incumbências por parte do Poder Público. Aborda-se, inicialmente, o advento da educação básica como nova configuração organizativa das etapas e modalidades de ensino obrigatórias no país. Em seguida, analisa-se os dispositivos legais que modificam, especificamente, o Título III da Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional – LDBEN, nº 9.394/1996, Do Direito à Educação e Do Dever de Educar. Os resultados do estudo reconhecem a expansão e diversificação da oferta da educação básica como construto favorável à garantia do direito à educação. Foi possível também inferir que a delimitação da obrigatoriedade e da gratuidade do ensino, ao período dos 04 aos 17 anos de idade, conforme consta na letra da lei, ao mesmo tempo em que estabelece o interstício ideal para a efetivação Do Direito à Educação, também oferece margem interpretativa para eventual flexibilização Do Dever de Educar por parte do Poder Público. Com efeito, a defesa da educação como direito humano fundamental, além de demandar o cumprimento da incumbência Estatal, constitui, sobremaneira, corresponsabilidade a ser protagonizada pela sociedade civil organizada.Palavras-chave: LDBEN/1996; Direito à educação; Dever de educar; Democratização do ensinoDEMOCRATIZATION OF THE RIGHT TO BASIC EDUCATION IN BRAZIL: some considerationsAbstractThis article aims to analyze the injunctions of educational legislation in the movement to democratize the right to education in Brazil. In the light of the literature in the area, democracy and collaborative action are conceived as basic foundations both in guaranteeing citizens' rights and in carrying out tasks on the part of the government. Initially, the advent of basic education is approached as a new organizational configuration of the stages and modalities of compulsory education in the country. Then, the legal provisions that specifically modify Title III of the Law of Directives and Bases of Education are analyzed National - LDBEN, nº 9.394 / 1996, From the Right to Education and the Duty to Educate. The results of the study recognize the expansion and diversification of the offer of basic education as a construct favorable to guaranteeing the right to education. It was also possible to infer that the delimitation of mandatory and free education, from 4 to 17 years of age, as stated in the letter of the law, while establishing the ideal interstice for the realization of the Right to Education, also it offers an interpretive margin for eventual flexibility of the Duty to Educate by the Public Power. Indeed, the defense of education as a fundamental human right, in addition to demanding compliance with the State's mandate, is, above all, co-responsibility to be played by organized civil society.Keywords: LDBEN / 1996; Right to education; Duty to educate; Democratization of educationDEMOCRATIZACIÓN DEL DERECHO A LA EDUCACIÓN BÁSICA EN BRASIL: algunas consideracionesResumen Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los mandatos de la legislación educativa en el movimiento para democratizar el derecho a la educación en Brasil.

Education is the most powerful instrument to change the society. The welfare and economic progress of a country depends on the quality of education because education refers to the development of human skill and knowledge of the people or labor force and education is called human capital. Different education policies during the post independent period focused primarily to improve the enrolment in the primary school in India. In order to access all children up to 14 years of age the different National Education Policies gave priority to universialization of elementary education program on different times and many initiatives like Operation Black Board, Mid-day Meal, Sarvashiksha Abhijan (SSA) and Right to Education Act. Uttar Dinajpur district is not an exception. Literacy and education of the district shows dismal picture and according to census report 2011the district has the lowest rank in the state. The district is an economically and educationally back ward district. The present paper is an attempt to study the enrolment trend at the elementary level in the government school and private schools in Uttar Dinajpur during the period 2012-13 to 2016-17 and enquiry into the problems relating to the learning outcomes of the children at the elementary level in government schools of the district. The empirical findings point out many problems such as poor academic performances of the students, wastage of teaching time on mid-day meal related works, irregular attendance of the teachers in the school, teacher-guardian meet, guardians choice regarding admission of their children , lack of parents awareness and use of mobile phone in the class room.
