Delhi government has instructed school in national capital to begin a “Parent Outreach Programme” to keep parents of students in touch with their school management.
This exercise has been ordered after a report on the Delhi government’s education interventions by the Boston Consulting Group found that 63% parents of students were not aware of SMCs, which are supposed to function as a bridge between parent communities and schools.
Each school has 16 SMC members, and each of them have been instructed to reach out to up to 50 students of their school who reside in the same locality as them.
