successful transfer to the school.
Schools should stop the practice of stereotyping the poor
Anglo-Indian by offering them ill-fitting uniforms,
shaving their heads, or giving them hand-me-down-dog-
eared books. If the induction programme is geared to
confidence building, then the parents of these poor
Anglo-Indian students should not be subjected to rigorous
questions which results in shattering their egos.
The programme must determine rules and specify kinds of
explanation for introducing the programme to Anglo-
Indians. The induction programme would enable Anglo-
Indian students to learn more about learning. This
means, and this is the most important point, that Anglo-
Indian students would learn to take responsibility for
and monitor their own learning.
5. The Indian Mutiny - 1857: The Revolution which was won
in the Ancrlo-Indian classroom.
An aspect which has been overlooked by previous research
is that a historic decision in 1857 was made for the
Anglo-Indians in their Christian schools. The English
language, Christian brotherhood and European fathers,
forced the Anglo-Indians to take up arms against their
Indian brothers. it was not only a "call of blood" (9)
but a call for marching onwards as Christian Soldiers.
It was a mutiny which called for Christian brotherhood,
and the obeying of commands in the English language.
Unfortunately, it was not a call for Anglo-Indians to
unite with Hindus and Muslims. It was not a call for
protecting Indians against colonial oppression.
It is an interesting hypothesis. It is the first time
that an Anglo-Indian (the researcher) has voiced an
opinion which is pro-Indian, and linked the 1857 decision
to education.
6. The global perspective of the new ethnicity of Anglo-
Indians: A comparative study of American, Australian.
Canadian, British and Indian Anglo-Indians.
Anglo-Indians have settled in four continents. They have
created a new ethnicity. A comparative study of the
Anglo-Indians will offer invaluable insights into how
they integrated into majority cultures. This would make
fascinating reading for all Anglo-Indians, no matter
where they live.
