‘No school will be shut under mapping exercise’

Those needing additional infrastructure will be identified and developed, says Suresh
Education Minister A. Suresh on Saturday said that students, their parents, and all other stakeholders should understand that the ongoing exercise of mapping the government schools would only change the location of the schools for the students. “It will not lead to closure of any school,” he reiterated.
Speaking at the valedictory of the Orientation for MLAs, MLCs and others on the mapping of schools, the Minister said that “no school will disappear.” “The existing schools will only change their form into Foundation Schools, Foundation Plus, High Schools, and High Schools Plus,” he added.
