CITING poor functioning,
monitoring and non-viability, the state education department, under its ‘school
consolidation plan’, decided to merge the government primary schools with poor enrollment record with schools located within one-kilometer radius. The
process will be conducted in a phased manner where to initiate with, some
2,500-3,000 government primary schools will be merged with other government
schools, likely next month.
According to the education
department standards, these schools are ‘non-viable’ where there are very few
number of students compared to teachers. Nearly 33,000 government primary
schools are running in the state. Out of this, 5,100 schools have less than 100
students and nearly 15-20 upper primary schools have an enrollment of even less
than 25 in Classes VI to VIII.
This was revealed in the
report accessed by Gujarat Government of a detailed survey concluded
on July 31 in each district where the district primary education officers
(DPEOs) were directed to personally verify schools.
A similar decision was passed in 2013 where, out of nearly 33,000 primary schools, 13,450 primary schools with 100 and less students and similarly, some 6,826 primary schools with 50 and even less students were identified. However, it could not be implemented due to protests from villagers, civil society, educationists as well as teachers associations citing violation of Right to Education Act that mandates every child to have free and compulsory education from the age of 6-14 years.
