New Delhi:
Kendriya Vidyalaya campuses will now be available for skill
development courses after school hours, the human resource
development ministry said Wednesday.
The decision was taken by the board of governors of Kendriya
Vidyalayas Sangathan, chaired by Human Resource Development
Minister Kapil Sibal, following the recommendations of the
Academic Advisory Committee of the HRD ministry.
"The minister directed the Kendriya Vidyalayas to prepare a
detailed policy, especially with regard to preference to be given
to school children for the courses and the skills that may be
permitted," a ministry official said.
"The policy would also incorporate the provision of an exit clause
in case evening shifts are required," he said.
The guidelines for transfer of Kendriya Vidyalaya staff was also
revised.
According to the ministry officials, the new system will "provide
a fair chance to every employee of getting a choice posting and
will be done in a transparent manner.
"Posting to hard stations will be done only after 40 years of age,
both for ladies and others, and minimum three years of tenure will
be given at the place of first posting," the official said.
"This will provide a uniform ground for all employees and stop
favouritism," he said.
Other decisions taken by the board include in-service training
course for teachers, regional incentive awards and commencing
foreign language classes.
