Why India's education system is both admired and misunderstood

India has over 1.4 billion people, a quarter of a billion children in school, a record number of teachers, and a system that, by its own admission, has not cracked what actually happens inside the classroom once the children sit down. The people who understand that gap most clearly are the ones who have spent their careers building inside it.Shreyasi Singh, Founding Managing Partner of Jetri, built one of India's most talked-about education companies, sold it in six years, and now advises the philanthropists deciding what Indian education should look like next. She believes the problems are fixable. But first, India has to stop looking away. In her own words, India should be far more unsettled by this than it currently is.India has produced some of the world's greatest minds. It has also left hundreds of millions of children behind. Shreyasi Singh has spent her career trying to understand how both things are true at the same time.
