Though the Central Board of Secondary Education has made it compulsory for schools to have their own websites, not many are towing the line and the board has decided to wield the stick.
Deadline not met
“All the managers and principals of schools affiliated to the board were expected to host websites within a period of six months since last October. However, we have found that some of the schools have not yet developed their own websites and have not uploaded the required information,” said board joint secretary (affiliation) M V V Prasada Rao.
“All the schools have to furnish information on affiliation status, details of infrastructure, names and designation of teachers, class-wise and section-wise enrolment of students, postal address and email, telephone numbers and details of members of the school managing committee etc,” Prasada Rao said.
The schools also have to prepare an annual report containing the above information and upload it on their websites before September 15. He added that all the managers and principals of schools have been again asked to host websites and send a report to the board within a month, failing which the defaulting schools would face action.
Websites are useful
Reacting to the CBSE’s website proposal, Annie Joseph, mother of a fifth standard student, says that it is certainly a good idea.
“Websites help parents a lot. We can log in and check what activities are being taken up by school. Moreover, in this era of technology when schools upload marks on the websites, it is very sad to know that many schools are yet to have their own websites,” Annie said.
