JKBOSE Starts the Tagging Procedure for Students Enrolled in Schools That Are in Default
Exercise intended to guarantee affected students’ exams
JAMMU, December 16: J&K Board of School Education has begun tagging thousands of students enrolled in defaulting schools with nearby government institutions in order to facilitate their exams and save their careers.
According to official sources who spoke with the Excelsior, steps have been taken to guarantee that these students won’t suffer as a result of their institutions’ inability to renew their affiliation with J&K BOSE, primarily due to the campus’s location on government land.
Over 300 private schools in the Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory, with a combined enrollment of about 4500 students in classes 10th, 11th, and 12th, have lost their affiliation with the Board due to noncompliance with the necessary requirements for affiliation renewal.
It is important to note that additional requirements have been placed in accordance with Statutory Order (S.O.) number 177, dated April 15, 2022, among other things, for the schools’ registration, recognition, and affiliation. This extra requirement requires schools to get a certificate about the land title or lease deed on which the school is located from the relevant Tehsildar. In the event that the required land title certificate is not produced, the S.O. also stipulates that those schools will be de-recognized and their management will be assumed.At JKBOSE, students enrolled in defaulting schools begin to be tagged.
The Joint Secretaries of J&K Board of School Education for Jammu Division and Kashmir Division issued a circular and notification on April 15th, in response to the amendments made to the rules. The notice asked all private high schools and higher secondary schools to provide a NOC regarding their land use from the Revenue Department.
Due to the Statutory Order and the additional requirement of providing a land use NOC, many private schools have been unable to reapply for the JKBOSE after their affiliation has expired.
The sources state that there are currently over 300 of these private high schools and higher secondary schools, and that number is expected to rise as soon as the affiliation tenure—three years for new schools, five years for established ones—expires.
The future of thousands of these students was in jeopardy because these disaffiliated schools are no longer able to register their students with JKBOSE for exams. This was due to allegations made by various political parties in Kashmir that JKBOSE had refused to accept examination forms from class 10 students enrolled in private schools established on State land.
Dr. Prikshit Singh Manhas, the chairman of the JKBOSE, refuted these accusations and assured the Excelsior that all students would be able to take the test and not to worry. He emphasised that a similar situation had arisen the previous year and that, in order to preserve students’ careers, the School Education Department had filed a Civil Miscellaneous Petition before the High Court, which permitted tagging of students. “We will ensure that every student is allowed to appear in the examination and accordingly, the candidates who are facing the issue because of the fault on part of their institution are being tagged to the nearest Government schools,” he said.
Dr. Prikshit also disclosed that defaulting schools are instructed not to admit any students from class 9 onward until the institution receives an extension in affiliation from JKBOSE, at the time of starting the process of tagging the enrolled students.
It should be remembered that the government ordered all private schools established on State land to immediately cease teaching enrolled children while amending the Education Act, 2002, to provide new guidelines regarding the use of land and building structures by private schools in the Union Territory. In order for students to be admitted into Government schools with their parents’ permission, the schools were also requested to grant school leaving certificates to the pupils.
The High Court of J&K and Ladakh, however, received several writ petitions from the resentful private schools, and it issued various rulings on these issues, including an order to preserve the status quo.
