| BOSE puts on hold permanent recognition to schools | | Chairman fails to convene recognition committee meet | | Pankaj Sagar Jammu | Apr 29 It seems that lucrative Elementary Teachers Training (ETT0 course has taken heavy toll on school education, as governing body JK Board for School Education (BOSE) has failed to convene even a single meeting of recognition and affiliation committee of private schools in the last three years. The sources maintained that during the last three years no meeting of the committee was convened as a result of which managements of various private schools are facing great hardships in getting affiliation and the recognition of the BOSE. Sources further revealed that only provisional affiliation was being granted to all the institutions and that too for a limited period (one session). It is to mention hat the procedure for the affiliation, whether provisional or the fee structure, was same i.e. Rs 4000 for old institutions and Rs 7000 for new ones. Prof. NA Ganai has failed to call the meeting as he is now-a-days busy only in training policies for other assignments of Board, leaving aside the issue of schools, sources added. Ganai, who is currently on the extension as Chairman is said to be disinterested in convening the meeting to hide his performance during his ongoing stint besides coming to fore several other facts which will not be of his likings. The sources said that the meeting which has not been held since last three years has caused several hardships to school management’s, students and parents, especially during the time of filling examination forms for board exams. On one side, hardships are being caused to the students and managements due to the slackness of BOSE. Officials, on the other the Board is busy in accumulating money in the form of chargeable fee for temporary affiliation for brief periods while the fee chargeable for permanent affiliation is fixed for three years. It is pertinent to mention here that inspection committee of the Board has been making visits to the schools but without any purpose as temporary affiliations are also being given to all the institutions irrespective of the facts that whether the institutions has satisfied the inspections norms or not. On the condition of anonymity, some of the school managements expressed displeasure against the policy of the Board and alleged they were unnecessarily being harassed and victimized on one pretext of the other. |
