Chandigarh Education Interventions Face Scrutiny
Imagine schools need new computer labs to help kids learn better.
A meeting checked on Chandigarh to see if these labs were ready.
They found the labs weren't built yet.
They also noticed some teaching jobs were empty.
The meeting suggested Chandigarh should fix these problems quickly.
They talked about how to split money for different kinds of schools and how to help students who need extra help.
The goal is to make sure all kids in Chandigarh get a good education.
Chandigarh's progress in key educational areas was reviewed.
No ICT labs, sanctioned for 2024-25, have been completed.
Over 28% of academic posts at SCERT remain vacant.
The board suggested re-evaluating fund allocation across education levels.
Support for children with special needs was also emphasized.
