Abstract

In a country such as India, the government has the responsibility of providing education for all. As the knowledge of Information Technology becomes more and more important in maintaining the comparative advantage that the country has gained in recent years, the need to provide IT education at school level becomes more imperative. The cost of involved in providing the required infrastructure is enormous. Some of the states in the country have teamed up with private companies, to fill the gap. Through this process of Public Private Partnership (PPP), the state governments could manage to spread out their capital investment over a longer period, but reap the benefits of providing the IT education in the schools from the very first year itself. This paper evaluates the impact of one such PPP initiative in India.
