The Annual Status of Education Report (ASER), based on a survey covering about six lakh children in 567 districts of rural India, has said tuition-going students were much more clear with their arithmetic concepts.
"The influence of additional inputs in the form of tuition on the children's ability to read or do arithmetic is clear. Whether enrolled in government school or private school, children receiving this addition support have better learning outcomes than those who do not," it said.
The report also revealed that enrolment in private schools had jumped by 10 per cent in the last three years.
It said that in 2012, of all the children enrolled in standard I to VIII, close to 45 per cent were going to private schools or taking to private tuitions.
Enrollment among the 6-14 age group in private schools has gone up from 18.7 per cent in 2006 to 28.3 per cent in 2012, the report said while raising a big question mark on the quality outcomes especially in the RTE regime.
It said if the current trend of enrolment in private school continues, "then by 2018 India may have 50 per cent children attending private schools even in rural areas".
In fact, more than 40 per cent of the children in Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Goa and Meghalaya were enrolled in private schools, it said. In Kerala and Manipur, the figure was more than 60 per cent.
