There is a need to improve access to child health services. The Ministry of Health is focusing on promoting child health through appropriate interventions. Presently, the Department of School Education and Literacy, MHRD addresses the nutritional needs of school going children in the age group of 6-14 years through the Mid- Day Meal (MDM) Scheme. The Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) under WCD also addresses the issues of child health. There is, however, a need to synergize the multi-sectoral interventions taken by the relevant GOI Ministries. The existing schemes need to be examined for their outcomes and impediments in implementation, including those of coordination. This theme seeks views and suggestions on how to ensure greater focus on child through improvements in existing schemes and suggest new holistic interventions.

Basic idea of child health should be conveyed to the teachers. They should be trained like they could understand and manage the student in accidental conditions.Games and sports periods should be more frequent in the school time tables. The sports teacher should accompany them in the grounds and should play with them.Because physical development will form the base of mental development.

When a student gets good food and better physical training, health check-ups and medical aids for mental development, they become healthy and can concentrate their education. Please implement the felicities in all schools [public and private] physical and mental. Otherwise give aids to the private sector schools as loan by govt it self.

the government has established railway schools in india but present the railway employees do not have interest to join their child's into those schools why because government is giving reimbursement if the employees submit fee bills. But i observed most of the employees not giving correct fee details. they are submitting excess bills to the government. so our government has to take action about these issues and save the money and also save the railway shools.

in india education system is not running perfectly. the authorities are not taking care about the quality of the education. teachers are recruiting by strict exams but they are not working purely for improving the child education. some of the teachers are not going regular to the schools.

Studies have shown that right posture i.e upright can improve the concentration levels-it should be stressed. Eyes generally get tired due to over studying, computer etc.. so eye exercises should be made mandatory. Oral hygiene should be promoted by encouraging children to rinse their mouth after the lunch breaks. Washing of hands before meals should be made mandatory. These little things will reduce the incidence of infection and help our children to grow up as healthy and capable individuals
