Education
Today, Purna has good education facilities provided by some of the Marathi as well as English medium schools. There are some colleges educating students from Purna and some of the surrounding villages up to graduation. There is also one private Ayurved college in Purna. Even if it has satisfactory education facilities until graduation, Purna falls short in providing higher education. Hence there is a strong need to build some good post graduation, medical, and engineering colleges.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“I doubt whether classical education ever has been or can be successfully carried out without corporal punishment.”

“The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.”
—Jean Piaget (1896–1980)
“I am not describing a distant utopia, but the kind of education which must be the great urgent work of our time. By the end of this decade, unless the work is well along, our opportunity will have slipped by.”
