international community of Anglo-Indians together.
At a simple level, the Tknglo-Indian schools are for
Anglo-Indian children. But the Anglo-Indian University
College would be a meeting-educational-point for a range
of cultures. These cultures would be supported,
developed and maintained in an educational celebration of
cultural diversity. An Anglo-Indian University College
will be an enrichment for all students.
The building of Anglo-Indian University Colleges would
help to preserve a unique racial, linguistic and
religious minority community's heritage. The wealth of
the Anglo-Indian community is in its educational
institutions. Anglo-Indian University Colleges will
create a revolutionary transformation of educational and
economic life for Anglo-Indians in India.
It will only occur if the community in India possesses a
solidarity and total vision of a new ethnic Anglo-Indian
community. This community through dynamic educational
change will be integrated with Indian society.
The global response to expanding Anglo-Indian schools
into Anglo-Indian University Colleges will be a goal
accomplishment. It will be a deliberate strategy to
create a sense of identity among the members of the
international community.
The thesis has attempted to explain some of the reasons
for Anglo-Indian educational disadvantage and has made
recommendations as to how these might be addressed. The
crucial aspect of this is that the Anglo-Indian community
cannot survive unless it puts its own educational house
in order. No matter which passports they carry or
nationalities they possess, the uniqueness of the Anglo-
Indian community will only endure if these educational
tasks are undertaken in its education.
