TN to Upgrade 20 High Schools to Higher Secondary Level

The Tamil Nadu government is increasing access to education by upgrading 20 high schools to higher secondary schools.

This means students can complete their schooling without changing schools.

The School Education Minister announced the plan earlier, and the government is hiring 200 new teachers and spending money to make it happen.

The goal is to help students in rural and semi-urban areas continue their studies and reduce the number of students who drop out.

However, some schools have seen declining enrollment recently, with many schools having to close due to a lack of students.
