In this video, the Centre for Public Policy Research (CPPR), Kochi, Kerala, presents key insights from its research on Low-Fee Private Schools (LFPS) across 5 Indian States, namely Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
LFPS educate a significant portion of the nation’s students, particularly in low- and middle-income communities, yet they operate under complex regulatory frameworks that often focus on input-heavy compliance rather than learning outcomes. This video explores:
The scale and role of LFPS in India’s education system
Challenges posed by over-prescriptive regulations and administrative burdens
Evidence on learning outcomes and gaps in quality
Policy recommendations to enable LFPS to deliver better education while ensuring safety and access
Featuring interviews, podcast clips, and stakeholder perspectives, this video highlights practical pathways to reform, emphasising flexible, outcome-focused regulations that empower schools, teachers, and communities.
