Setting up of Complaint Box in all Primary, Higher Primary, Secondary and Higher Secondary Schools of State @ Maharashtra Govt GR

All schools in the state will have to set up a complaint box on their premises for students to file anonymous complaints regarding their safety . The schools will have to address the complaints every week.

A government resolution issued by the state education department on Friday states that the complaint box will have to be set up by all schools at a prominent place on the campus or near the school entrance so that it is accessible to all. “To ensure security of students in schools, there has arisen a need to set up complaint boxes. While some schools have already set them up, all schools must follow suit,“ said the government resolution.

The school authorities will have to open the box at the end of the last working day of the week in the presence of the principal, parent or student representative and preferably police personnel.“The school must seek police help if a complaint is of a serious nature,“ says the resolution.

In case of a complaint of sexual abuse by a teacher or student, the school has to inform the women redressal cell or school management which must decide the next course of action.
