Punjab & Haryana HC was hearing a plea by Faridkot woman who said her daughter’s school divided children into sections based on performance in previous exam.
The govt had made several efforts to re-open schools in a phased manner after the scrapping of Article 370 but failed as parents kept children home due to safety concerns.
A sum of Rs 56,536 crore was sanctioned to the school education department in 2019-20, from which the finance ministry is likely to cut Rs 3,000 crore.
Bodies like CBSE need to incorporate major reforms so that school education can be a worthwhile alternative to the mad rush for preparing for IIT entrance exams.
Under the new curriculum, beginning 1 July, Delhi govt school students will be given Rs 1,000 each and encouraged to become job providers, not just job seekers.
The Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan turned out to be the Centre’s most successful school education scheme. It became the tool to implement the Right to Education Act.
Forget comparing it with classics like Hrithik’s Ek Pal Ka Jeena or the slick title track of Dhoom 2, Janaab-e-Aali does not even come close to Ghungroo.
India’s industrial output growth saw a 10-month low in June, with Index of Industrial Production (IIP) growing by mere 1.5% as against 1.9% in May 2025.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
I don’t think schools who classify students based on performance work that way.
Also classification and reclassification is an ongoing process.
Child A may be very quick on the uptake .
One teacher teaches children like A,A1,A2,…..Ax the basics and moves to higher realms quickly.
Child D,E and F may require a detailed explanation on every issue .They are failures but not as sharp as some children. These children probably excell in fine arts or dramatics .They could spend time polishing those skills.
Consider the problem of the School if Child A is made to sit in class with class E,F and G . Either the teacher will not be able to devote adequate time to the later or child A,A1 and A2 will be marking time and after a while loose interest in Studies and concentrate on other anti-social issues.
Earlier,the students could get “Double Promotion” once or even twice to maintain a challenging environment for the brilliant performers.The rigid rules of schooling now precludes such quick advancement.
The school has evolved a correct method of facilitating the human rights of all students including the brilliant ones. Courts and overzealous parents should be restrained from ruining it.
Since a lower mark could potentially expose the student to feelings of inferiority, every student must receive 100/100 and fulsome praise from the teacher irrespective of the answers in the examination sheet !
School is doing all sort of thing against prevailing laws, my son studying in class II in KV school is forced out of school since a month post fake allegations of being a child who has touched her teacher (58 yrs) inappropriately. Does a child aged 8 yes have that orientation? They have preconditioned to submit his assessment report for his reinstatement. My son’s only fault is he has speech delay and some social behavioural issue (mild autism)
Equality is a chimera. Like five fingers of a palm, people are different. It is one thing to grant equality before law and equal protection of law under Article 14 of the Constitution. But, it is ridiculous to extend it every walk of life such as class rooms and temples. The supreme court is held for ransom by busy body PIL factory. The court is foolishly interfering in every walk of life.
Civilised world adopt constitution to guide their society in a civilised, dignified and lawful way. Courts have a most important role to see individual or community rights are not violated.
Courts should take this matter seriously and ban this kind of segregation in all schools in the country.

Leave it to the school teachers and PTA’s to sort out education. Enough mess has been created in 2G, Mining, Cricket and NRC by the courts.
Let the courts not mess with future generations at least!
