Primary education (or elementary education) is the building block of the entire education system in India and the first step of formal education for a child. In this study, an attempt has been made to examine the state of elementary education in Assam for the period 2006 to 2016. Progress of elementary education in the state over a decade is evaluated in terms of certain selected indicators based on secondary data. For reference or comparison purpose, we take the national average of the different parameters.For educational inputs we have taken school indicators and teacher indicators and for output we have taken enrolment indicators for Assam and then compared that with the national level i.e. with India. Further, we analysed the percentage enrolment as per the different social groups in Assam. Graphs and tables are used as tools to support the discussion.
