India has made meaningful progress in the field of education by implementing the policy of Education for All. The focus has been to increase the enrolment ratio of students at primary, secondary and higher education level. Several important programmes have been introduced to provide free and compulsory education to all children in the age group of 6 to 14 years as a Fundamental Right. The New Education Policy has been introduced in 2020 for introducing major reforms in the education system in India. However, one of the important areas of concern in India is that though enrolment rates have increased at primary level, enrolment level at secondary and higher education levels remains a challenge. The focus of this paper is on the current approaches adopted by India to implement the Goal 4 of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) . The SDG 4 emphasizes on attaining quality education based on gender equality, skill development, vocational training, and entrepreneurship. The paper examines the trends in education attainment levels at primary, secondary and tertiary levels in India and studies some of the latest schemes launched by Government for school and higher education in India. The paper also explores some major challenges in improving the quality of education in India.
