Indian Education system is generally analyzed on two bases; one is Education system before the independence and another Education system after the independence.

Lord Macaulay (1835) had put his efforts in developing the education system in the country with some minor changes into the ongoing system and it was the time when the Indian Education system had begun to develop but at little pace. Later on Lord Bentinck, had worked hard in removing the bad rituals been followed in the society and also worked in improving the education system so that Indian can be educated and they can get formal education. On that time, priority was given to religious education and there was no fixed place where a formal education can be provided. It was the efforts of Lord Bentinck who brought Adam from Britain to present his three consecutive reports (1837-38) on Indian Education system and current scenario and insisted to improve the traditional school’s infrastructure.

Thereafter, Wood Despatch (1854), Gokhale bill (1910), Vardha Scheme of education, Sergeant Plan etc were the main efforts which had given a new direction to India Education system. Planning of Basic education proposed by Mahatma Gandhi (1937) in which free and compulsory education for 6 to 14 years age was remarkable and had been a landmark in history of Indian Education. He had also insisted to provide vocational based education system to enhance the chance of employability among the youth of India.
