There is a need to improve access to child health services. The Ministry of Health is focusing on promoting child health through appropriate interventions. Presently, the Department of School Education and Literacy, MHRD addresses the nutritional needs of school going children in the age group of 6-14 years through the Mid- Day Meal (MDM) Scheme. The Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) under WCD also addresses the issues of child health. There is, however, a need to synergize the multi-sectoral interventions taken by the relevant GOI Ministries. The existing schemes need to be examined for their outcomes and impediments in implementation, including those of coordination. This theme seeks views and suggestions on how to ensure greater focus on child through improvements in existing schemes and suggest new holistic interventions.

TO REDUCE WEIGHT OF BAGS, WE NEED TO REDUCE NUMBER OF BOOKS CARRIED DAILY OR REDUCE THE WEIGHT OF INDIVIDUAL BOOKS. THIS CAN BE DONE BY REDUCING THE NUMBER OF PERIODS IN A DAY. CORRESPONDINGLY DURATION OF PERIODS COULD BE INCREASED BY 5-10 MINUTES. E.g. 9 PERIODS IN A DAY COULD BE CUT DOWN TO 7 PERIODS. PERIOD DURATION OF 30-40 MINUTES COULD BE INCREASED TO 40-50 MINUTES. THIS IS ONE OF THE SIMPLEST SOLUTION FOR REDUCING WEIGHT OF SCHOOL-BAGS. THERE ARE MANY OTHER SOLUTIONS.

It is the need of the hour to formulate a new education policy. Govt. Must constitute a single education board up to the level of 12th standard. Merge all the present education like State boards, CBSE, ICSE, NCERT etc in a single entity by taking all the good aspects of them. The education standards across India must have a uniformity. Quality education has to be provided to all students irrespective of their financial or social status. Eliminate the present type not discrimination by money .
