Says a committee can be constituted to improve quality of education
Expressing serious concern over the quality of education imparted in government schools and their poor infrastructural facilities, the Madras High Court has directed the State government to consider the possibility of allowing public sector and also private industries to adopt government educational institutions. Justices N. Kirubakaran and T.V. Thamilselvi also directed Government Counsel R. Neelakandan to ensure that either a high-level committee was constituted to suggest ways to improve the quality of education in government schools or other appropriate measures were taken by the State. The judges called for a report in this regard by August 2. The interim orders were passed on a writ appeal related to service conditions for getting promoted as headmasters of government primary schools. While dealing with the case, the judges said the quality of education imparted in government schools, especially those in rural areas, had gone down badly in the recent years forcing many people to admit their children in private schools.More Related News
