Guwahati, Assam:
The Assam government has announced its decision to upgrade 561 more high schools in the state to higher secondary (HS) schools. The move is aimed at improving the quality of education and providing better opportunities for students in the state.
The decision was announced by the state Education Minister, Ranoj Pegu, who stated that the government is committed to providing quality education to students in Assam. He said that the government is working towards ensuring that every student in the state has access to quality education and is able to achieve their full potential.
The Education Minister further added that the decision to upgrade these high schools to HS schools will help students in rural and remote areas of the state to continue their education after completing their high school studies. This, in turn, will enable them to pursue higher education and enhance their employability prospects.
The government’s decision has been welcomed by educators and education experts in the state. Many believe that this move will have a significant impact on the education system in Assam and will help to bridge the gap between rural and urban areas in terms of educational opportunities.
Speaking about the government’s decision, Dr. Dipak Kumar Sharma, an education expert, said, “This is a commendable initiative by the Assam government. Upgrading these high schools to HS schools will provide students with access to better infrastructure and facilities, which will enhance their learning experience. This move will also help to improve the quality of education in the state and enable students to compete at a national level.”
The government’s decision to upgrade these high schools to HS schools comes as part of its larger initiative to transform the education system in Assam. The state government has been taking several steps in recent years to improve the quality of education in the state and provide better opportunities for students.
In addition to upgrading high schools to HS schools, the government has also launched several other initiatives aimed at improving the education system in the state. These initiatives include the introduction of new courses, the establishment of new universities and colleges, and the expansion of existing educational institutions.
The government’s efforts have yielded positive results, with the state’s education system showing significant improvement in recent years. According to a recent report by the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), several educational institutions in Assam have improved their ranking in the past year, with some institutions ranking among the top educational institutions in the country.
The Assam government’s decision to upgrade 561 high schools to HS schools is expected to have a significant impact on the education system in the state. The move is likely to improve the quality of education in rural and remote areas of the state and provide better opportunities for students.
The decision has also been welcomed by students and parents in the state. Many students who had to travel long distances to attend higher secondary schools in other areas of the state will now be able to continue their education in their own locality.
“I am very happy with the government’s decision to upgrade our high school to an HS school. This will save us a lot of time and money, as we will no longer have to travel long distances to attend school,” said Rajesh, a student from a remote village in Assam.
The government’s decision to upgrade high schools to HS schools is a step in the right direction towards providing quality education to every student in the state. It is expected that this move will have a positive impact on the education system in Assam and help to improve the overall educational landscape in the state.
