Nuh finally gets DEO, but on additional charge with limited presence
Gurgaon: After months of vacancy, Nuh district has finally been assigned a district elementary education officer (DEO) — but only on an additional-charge basis and for a limited number of days in the district. In a recent administrative reshuffle, Rohtash Verma has been given additional charge as the DEO on August 6. Verma has been assigned three major responsibilities within Nuh district—DEO Nuh, principal of DIET Malwan (Nuh), and overseeing broader development as part of Mewat's administrative structure—in addition to his existing roles as DEO Karnal and principal of DIET Kurukshetra.

For months, the absence of a full-time DEO has stalled educational progress in the district. The situation reflects a broader systemic problem in the state's education administration, with 50 Class 1 education officer posts lying vacant across the state, forcing existing officers to handle multiple roles simultaneously. Nuh's education system faces a complex set of challenges, including poor foundational literacy and numeracy levels, inadequate infrastructure, and high dropout rates, especially among girls. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ealing: If You Were Born Between 1945-1975 You Could Be Eligible For This British Seniors Read More Undo After taking charge, Verma initiated a foundational literacy and numeracy programme in collaboration with the state project implementation.

Sudden holiday rejig disrupts PAT exam in schools
MUMBAI: A last-minute change in festive holidays has forced government and government-aided schools to rejig the exam schedule of the Progressive Assessment Test (PAT), causing frustration among students, teachers and school staff. Sudden holiday rejig disrupts PAT exam in schools Confusion arose on Thursday after the state Education Department issued a circular, informing schools that the state government had declared a holiday for Narali Pournima on Friday, August 8, and another for Gauri Visarjan, on September 2, while cancelling the holidays previously scheduled for Dahi Handi on August 16 and Anant Chaturdashi on September 6. This unexpected switch has disrupted the ongoing Progressive Assessment Test (PAT) conducted by the Education Department from August 6 to 8. The English paper, originally scheduled for Friday, August 8, has been rescheduled to Monday, August 11. Many schools had communicated the original exam schedule to students and parents, and the circular on Thursday was released too late for timely updates. Srinivas Narayan, a parent from South Mumbai, asked how students could attend school on days like Dahi Handi and Anant Chaturdashi, when heavy traffic and public celebrations disrupt vehicular movement. Teachers and school managers are also upset. They say these last-minute decisions interfere with pre-planned academic schedules. Subhash More, a representative of the Shikshak Bharati Sanghatana, a teachers' union, had written to the Education Department, urging them not to change the school calendar mid-year, as it creates confusion for everyone. The University of Mumbai has also been forced to postpone some of its exams scheduled for Friday due to the revised holidays.

Aadhaar Seeding for Ashrama School Students to Enhance Education Monitoring
MYSURU: Students studying at the govt-run Ashrama residential schools across the state will have their Aadhaar seeded with the educational records to monitor their progress. The department of tribal welfare has decided to ensure that all students of these schools get the Aadhaar numbers and seed them with the educational records to monitor their progress and ensure they receive all the benefits of the govt schemes. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now According to D Randeep, Secretary, Department of Tribal Welfare, the department is now coming out with several new interventions for the Ashrama schools based on the feedback he received during his recent visit to the Ashrama schools in Hunsur of the district, where he interacted with the parents and tribal students. 'Ashrama schools cater to the needs of tribal children who require residential schooling from 1st Std to 8th Std. In fact, from this year onwards, the state govt has announced the extension of classes up to 12th Std in a graded manner in 5 Ashrama Schools, including two each in Mysuru and Chamarajanagar, while one is in Kodagu,' he explained to TOI. This comes amidst the Ashrama school students receiving textbooks on the first day of the new academic year, with the Tribal Welfare Department joining hands with the Education Department to supply textbooks. 'All these years, textbooks for our children were arranged through our district office. To ensure that our children get the textbooks on the first day itself, we joined hands with the Education Department. As a result, the textbooks reached students on time. We are also planning to work with the Education Department on the academic excellence of our students,' he said. The state govt has provided Rs 113 crores for the building of additional classrooms to accommodate enrolled students. Work would commence this year itself. During the financial year 2024-25, Rs 25 crores has been released for repairs and additional rooms construction in Ashrama schools,' he said. He also informed that the tribal girls in these schools will get sanitary napkins henceforth to ensure healthy menstrual hygiene.
