Govt begins construction of 39 CM composite schools
Lucknow: To modernise and make education inclusive, the state govt has begun the establishment of Chief Minister Composite Schools in 39 districts.
"In addition to these 39 schools, the govt will soon begin construction in 10 more CM Composite Schools.
For the remaining 26 districts, financial approvals and land selection processes are in their final stages," a govt spokesperson said.
The govt earlier announced that each district will have a CM Composite School.
Currently, all necessary approvals — including financial sanctions and land allocation — are obtained for the 39 districts where construction is either underway or about to begin.
"These modern schools are being built on 5-10 acres of land, with each costing around Rs 30 crore.
Six major agencies have been roped in to expedite the construction work," said a govt spokesperson.
"These schools will focus not only on quality education but also on skill development, sports, facilities, and student safety. Each school will have 30 smart classrooms, a digital library, a computer lab, modern science labs, a mini stadium, and a large playground," he said.
