Abstract

This paper presents the results of fieldwork on rural primary schools of two districts of Madhya Pradesh, India, conducted from December 2001 to March 2002. Since the mid-1990’s, the government of this state has initiated reforms in the public primary school sector, by decentralising its management, and facilitating the development of the private sector.
