Abstract:

The study investigates the status of infrastructure facilities in pre-primary schools through a comparative analysis of private and government pre- primary school. For the present study descriptive survey method were employed, data were collected from 15 pre-primary schools (9 private and 6 government) with the help of an observation checklist. The study is based on key parameters which includes building condition, hygienic toilets, classrooms, play areas, electricity, and drinking water. Findings: Private schools demonstrate a higher level of infrastructure development (77.8%) compared to Government schools (54.8%). While basic facilities are available in both sectors, government schools show notable deficiencies in sanitation and play facilities. Electricity is relatively adequate in both, whereas drinking water quality requires improvement in government schools, is essential for ensuring a safe and effective early childhood learning environment.
