Maharashtra - School Education and Sports Department GR dated 17 August 2015 - Regarding improvement in Educational quality of students in the State


The department on Tuesday issued a government resolution (GR) outlining the advantages of these programmes.

The GR has listed the various goals to be achieved through the implementation of these programmes. Among the list of objectives is the creation of a teacher-friendly administration, provision of technological assistance to promote self-learning among teachers, and making available training on demand for teachers.

About the out-of-school survey, the GR said that through the July 4 survey the state plans to achieve 100% enrolment and use Aadhar cards and biometric attendance to ensure students are in school.

Schools had also raised concerns about the introduction of competency tests which would mean three extra tests for the students. According to Nandkumar, the tests will help teachers identify students who score below 40% and help them in holding modules for these students at the school-level to improve learning levels.

The department has proposed group discussions to increase awareness about its schemes. The GR said: “There is a need to study all the government resolutions.The best way to do this is through group discussions. To begin with a conference must be held for centre heads in each district, principals and officials. Similar conferences and discussions must be held for the teachers as well.“
