English need not be given the label or status of second language but could be taught in an informal manner without text-books and exams
Two legislators, both former education ministers, on Saturday took up cudgels in support of introducing English as an additional subject in primary schools, at least in an informal way.
MLC B K Chandrashekar and MLA G Parameshwara, who were education ministers in S M Krishna government, addressing a joint press conference, said that English language is crucial for rural students who fail in public exams because of their lack of the English knowledge.
If a student starts learning English language in class V (at age ten), he or she can can confidently converse in the language after high school. If they start learning English at age five (class I), they will be more fluent in it, Mr Parameshwara said.
Recalling that the Kannada Development Authority had once recommended that English be introduced as a language from class III, Mr Chandrashekar said the language need not be given the label or status of second language but could be taught in an informal manner without text-books and exams.
