President George Bush’s speech in North Glen Elementary School on January 2006 – “I think the No Child Left Behind Act is one of the most significant accomplishments in education in a long, long time. I want to thank both the Republicans and Democrats who worked together back then to get this piece of legislation passed...,” applause!!!

Well, as per the recently published ‘Education at a Glance 2006’ report of Organisation of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the cost of this American ‘accomplishment’ has been $12,000 (across primary, secondary and tertiary levels of education) per student per year. No doubt, President Bush’s vision and the investments to realise this vision of ‘No child left behind’, has not only been noble but also a great example for countries like India where the foundations of education stand corroded, on account of lack of any vision.
