Rc. No. 01/A& 1/2014 Dated: 19/04/2016
All the Regional Joint Directors of School Education and District Educational Officers in the State arc informed that under Right to Education (RTE) Act 2009, the Right to Education is accorded the same legal status as the Right to Life as provided by Article 21 (a) of Indian Constitution. Every child in age group of 6 to 14 years shall be provided up to 8 years of Elementary Education on admission to an age appropriate class in the vicinity of his / her neighborhood.
It is further informed that a review of the enrollment in Government Schools is taken up as part of the Rationalization- Resource Redistribution exercise. It is proposed to undertake rationalization of all categories of schools and teacher transfers during the summer of 2016 and before the reopening of the Schools in 13.6.2016.
It is further informed that there is a declining trend in Government schools’ enrollment over the years. This is resulting in closing of zero enrollment schools, merging/consolidation of non-viable schools with neighboring schools during the rationalization process. Multi-grade teaching becomes inevitable when the enrollment does not justify allocation of full complement of teachers.
In the above context, it is proposed to take up a special campaign “Mana Vooru – Mana Badi” to complete the Admissions of 2016 academic year in all Government/Zilla Perished Schools from 20th April to 5th May 2016.
