With the regulation on the roll by the central government, India’s one of the leading coaching centers released a statement. Academic Director Rupa Guha of Career Launcher, Noida Extension, stated, “The Ministry of Education’s new coaching center regulations stir concern among parents, already grappling with students’ pandemic-induced setbacks.”
With a potential disruption in tuition services until class 10, pivotal formative years may lack necessary support. Parents fear this could hinder academic progress, adding to the challenges students face post-COVID. The extended academic hiatus intensifies parental worries, highlighting the delicate balance needed in educational policy for both regulation and facilitating a conducive learning environment.
Biswajeet Guha, Director Operations, Career Launcher, Noida Extension, further added, “The Ministry of Education’s recent guidelines and regulations pertaining to coaching centers have raised apprehensions among parents, particularly with regard to the imposed restriction on enrolling students below the age of 16.”
The crux of parental concern lies in the pivotal role that coaching centers play in helping their children establish a robust understanding of academic concepts, particularly during the crucial classes of VIII to X.”
Valid concerns have been articulated by parents who heavily rely on coaching centers for supplementary support, given their demanding work schedules and the imperative to actively participate in their children’s educational journey.
With this new regulation in force, parents find themselves constrained, left with no alternative but to explore options such as online tuitions or neighborhood tuitions. Both alternatives, however, present their own set of challenges, as voiced by the concerned parents.
In the realm of online learning, there exists the prerequisite for students to exhibit a level of self-discipline, a trait that may pose a formidable challenge for young learners susceptible to distractions.
Moreover, parents express reservations about the efficacy of neighborhood tuitions, often perceived as operating in an unorganized manner, casting doubts on their ability to provide the required educational support.
