The case presents the situation prevailing in Loreto Day School, Sealdah, when Sister Cyril took over as the principal of the school. It details the initiatives taken by her to turn around the school. With her active interest and concern for marginalised children, the school started admitting a greater number of non - fee paying children, bringing their number to half of the total enrolled children in the school. Several programmes like providing shelter to street children and integrating them into the education system, weekly visits by school children to nearby village schools, addressing the problem of hidden child labour, programmes for platform children and training for barefoot teachers were organised along with other teaching and learning activities in the school. Pedagogic changes like activity oriented science teaching, value education, work education, and an assessment programme which took into account the effort put in by children were also initiated. Views of a cross-section of parents, some of whom had high praise for the school while some others expressed concerns about its divergent activities are also included.

Some of the imperatives of the modern education are to establish continuity at the initial levels of the education system and a solid and functional relationship between preschool and school education. The purpose of this paper is to identify estimates made by the teachers of preschool children and younger school children about the solutions regarding establishing continuity between preschool and school education. The research included 244 examinees. Gathered results showed that examinees estimate the offered solutions as important and also that there were no significant differences in their estimates with regard to certain social and demographic characteristics. Work experience in elementary school education proved as a variable that influences the teachers’ estimates about the given solutions.

The article examines the conditions of supporting social giftedness in school children. A typology of social giftedness is proposed and social giftedness structure is determined based on the analysis of available research of this phenomenon. The author distinguishes the indicators of social giftedness in primary school children. Pedagogical observation of educational process in the primary school of Nayanova Gifted Children Academy (Samara, Russia) demonstrated that social giftedness in schoolchildren gains support on the level of individual creative initiative of teachers. By the same token, the development of social giftedness is not part of general education system in Russia. Both the pedagogical toolkit and the attention to social giftedness development need considerable advancement on institutional level.

Bearing in mind the thoughts clothed in the above quotations, it was decided to try to find how far our New Zealand school children had progressed towards the "desired goal." As far as the adult population is concerned, one can judge only by the sensational pleasure loving crowds which flock nightly to the luridly, and often lewdly, advertised "talkies"; by the crowded jazz dance halls; by the half empty churches; by the sordid, ugly streets in the residential areas adjoining factories; by the aspidistra nestling coyly among the hideous yellow and blue frilly curtains; by the ill-kept and inartistically planned gardens; by the huge and garish baubles encircling neck and arms of both society lady and factory girl. But for the children, we still hoped; New Zealand's education system has enjoyed a high reputation in the educational world, and the Director of Education, in his report to the Minister of Education, presented on April 16th 1936 after an extended tour abroad, wrote: "The New Zealand system of education, primary and post-primary, is fundamentally sound, modern, and well suited to our requirements."

The main aim of the study was to explore the causes of miss-out children from rural areas of Punjab. Further the study objective was to provide an in-depth exploration of the experiences of families who did not enroll their children in any school. The approach of the study was qualitative and participants were selected by considering the needs of the study. The study has provided useful insight and learning around the experiences of 25 families, across two districts of the Punjab; 13 families from district Multan and 12 families from district DG Khan were taken conveniently. An interview as data collection tool was used to get the data from children who are not going to school and their parents, and social workers of the community where they reside. The finding showed that poverty, education system, family’s migrations due to rented homes, unemployment, low social status, teachers’ attitude towards students, lack of skill-based curriculum, orphan hood, social and cultural pressures contribute to the student miss.
