The Navodaya Vidyalaya
System is a unique experiment unparalleled in the annals of school education in
India and elsewhere. Its significance lies in the selection of talented rural
children as the target group and the attempt to provide them with quality
education comparable to the best in a residential school system. Such children
are found in all sections of society, and in all areas including the most
backward. But, so far, good quality education has been available only to
well-to-do sections of society, and the poor have been left out. It was felt
that children with special talent or aptitude should be provided opportunities
to proceed at a faster pace, by making good quality education available to them,
irrespective of their capacity to pay for it.These talented children otherwise
would have been deprived of quality modern education traditionally available
only in the urban areas. Such education would enable students from rural areas
to compete with their urban counterparts on an equal footing. The National
Policy on Education-1986 envisaged the setting up of residential schools, to be
called Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas that would bring out the best of rural
talent.
