Students of ULB schools must attend study hrs till end of exams
The Department of Municipal administration and Urban Development MA and UD has issued orders that all 10th class students, studying in the schools run by municipalities and municipal corporations, must attend the study hours without fail from afternoon to evening for preparations
Vijayawada: The Department of Municipal administration and Urban Development (MA and UD) has issued orders that all 10th class students, studying in the schools run by municipalities and municipal corporations, must attend the study hours without fail from afternoon to evening for preparations.
The MAUD issued the orders in this regard to all 110 municipalities and municipal corporations in the State. The department also directed the commissioners of the municipalities and corporations to serve mid-day meals to the 10th class students in the afternoon and snacks in the evening. As per the orders, girl students should stay at the school for preparations till 6.30 pm and the boy students up to 8 pm.
The SSC examinations will be held from March 18 to 30 in the State. The 10th class examination will be held between 9.30 a.m. and 12.15 p.m. Students have to attend special class from 2 pm onwards.
The MA & UD department also issued instructions cancelling the leaves to the teachers, who are dealing with the 10th class from March 6 to 30 keeping in view of the public examinations. These study hours will be conducted till the end of the exams.
The government as part of the efforts to strengthen the school education in the State has introduced English medium education and changed hundreds of Telugu medium schools into English medium schools.
Besides, urban local bodies (ULBs) like Vijayawada Municipal Corporation are taking special care of the students and conducting extra classes morning and evening for many years. All these efforts are yielding good results as the VMC schools are getting more than 85 per cent pass for the past few years. Now, another effort is being made to get the best results this academic year.
Meanwhile, some teachers’ unions are opposing the cancellation of leaves to the teachers dealing with 10th class till the end of the examinations on March 30th alleging that it was not correct as some teachers may fall sick and could not attend the duty due to illness or may not attend the duty due to other important personal reasons.
