The State government would give everything possible and required for Ramanathapuram district. It would not be described as “backward” any more, said School Education Minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi here on Thursday.
Speaking after inaugurating new classrooms in an additional building at a government school in Parthibanoor near Paramakudi block, he said that many speakers (at the function) pointed out that the district was “backward.” But it would become progressive and the Education Department would set the tone towards this goal. Steps were being taken to upgrade government schools from high to higher secondary. There were representations from many parts of the State in this regard. A final decision would be taken after consulting the Chief Minister.
The objective was to rope in dropouts and make them pursue higher education and give them the best coaching practice as the government schools had experienced teachers in many disciplines, Mr. Mahesh said and wished that the alumnae from the government schools contributed liberally and voluntarily towards building infrastructure for the students.
