Ranchi, Dec 16: Jharkhand education minister Jagarnath Mahato on Friday said that in government schools, education will be done on the lines of CBSE and for this, approval has been given for studies in 25 schools.
“The level of education in Jharkhand has to be taken to new heights. The education department has made preparations for this. New experiments are being done. A total of 80 new schools are being constructed to provide quality education to poor children. It is the priority of our government to bring government schools at par with private schools,” he said.
Out of the 80 schools which are under construction, 50 new schools will be inaugurated on December 29.
The education minister also inaugurated the Gulmohar model prepared by Save the Children for school children to study through videos.
The education minister said that Jharkhand is touching new heights of development under the leadership of Chief Minister Hemant Soren. The education department is also not untouched by this. The government is providing quality education to the children and efforts are on in this direction.
“Every cooperation is being done by the government for the education of the children. Funds are being made available to the students of classes 9 and 10 under the Chief Minister Scholarship Scheme,” the education minister added.
He said that they have changed the colour of the schools, changed the colour of the school uniform of children and will also change the colour of education, which will remove the difference between government and private schools.
He further added that the role of institutions is also important in the work being done by the government in the field of education and the work being done by organisations like Save the Children in the early education of children is commendable.
He said that everyone will have to come forward in this kind of social work. Parents will have to strengthen their will, as well as such organisations will have to work in tandem with the government to make the future of the children bright.
The state head of Save the Children Mahadev Hansda said that it is necessary to strengthen the primary education of children.
“Our organisation is working to prepare children in rural areas to go to school. Many training programs are being run. Our organisation tries to make the early education of children easy.
