The handbook includes the SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) countries for discussion---Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka---while also considering countries such as Myanmar and the Maldives that have considerable shared history in the region. Such a comparative perspective is largely absent within the literature given the present paucity of intra-regional interaction. South Asian education systems are viewed primarily through a development lens in terms of inequalities, challenges and responses. However, the development of modern institutions of education and the challenges that it faces requires cultural and historical understanding of indigenous traditions as well as indigenous modern thinkers and education movements. Therefore, this encompassing referenc e work covers indigenous education traditions, formal education systems, including school and preschool education, higher and professional education, education financing systems and structures, teacher education systems, addressing huge linguistic and other diversities, and marginalization within the formal education system, and pedagogy and curricula. All the countries in this region have their own unique geographical, cultural, economic and political character and histories of interest and significance, and have responded to common issues such as overcoming the colonial legacy, language diversity, or girls education, or minority rights in education, in uniquely different ways. The sections therefore include country-specific perspectives as far as possible to highlight these issues. Internationally renowned specialists of South Asian education systems have contributed to this important reference work, making it an invaluable resource for researchers and students of education interested in South Asia. 001439442 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001439442 650_0 $$aEducation$$zSouth Asia. 001439442 650_0 $$aEducation and state$$zSouth Asia. 001439442 650_6 $$aÉducation$$xPolitique gouvernementale$$zAsie méridionale. 001439442 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001439442 7001_ $$aSarangapani, Padma. 001439442 7001_ $$aPappu, Rekha. 001439442 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSarangapani, Padma M.$$tHandbook of Education Systems in South Asia.$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore Pte.
