BASELINE SURVEY REPORT OF ENGLISH MEDIUM PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN
DISTT. HAMIRPUR (HIMACHAL PRADESH)
Introduction
The need of English medium is becoming a choice of many students and their parents in
Himachal Pradesh. It is a fact that mother tongue hindi is over and above all other
instructional mediums, but the craze for international language English has also become
significant in modern society. As children belonging to poor community are often deprived
of Primary ( Elementary) Education in English medium due to lack of financial assistance ,
they feel it bad. Instead of the poor class, most of the parents of students belonging to
middle and elite class prefer those private schools which offer English medium as the
medium of instruction at Primary Level. However, Himachal Pradesh Govt. has introduced
English as a subject from 1st class in the state, the decreasing enrolment is a burning issue.
Hence, an experiment has been started in Distt. Hamirpur where majority of the parents
were sending their children to Private Schools only for English Medium based instruction
for their children. They prefer it as science & maths subject are taught in English medium
at senior secondary level. Hence, the programme has been planned to attract them towards
government primary schools by starting English medium based instruction in them.
