## 2325. SHRI MOHANBHAI KALYANJI KUNDARIYA:

Will the Minister of HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT be pleased to state:

- (a) whether the Government has assessed the academic performance of students of the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas (JNVs) functioning in the country;
- (b) if so, the details thereof during the last three years and the current year, State-wise;
- (c) whether  the  Government  proposes  to  open  JNVs  in  each  district  in  the  country particularly in the rural areas in order to improve the standard of education as well as provide technical education to the poor students;
- (d) if  so,  the details thereof and the action taken/being taken by the Government in this regard; and
- (e) the other steps taken by the Government to improve the education standard of JNVs?

## ANSWER MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT (SHRI RAMESH POKHRIYAL 'NISHANK')

(a) and (b) : The academic performance of students of the JNVs are assessed as per norms of Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) regularly. Details of academic performance during the last three years and the current year are annexed.

(c) and (d) :        Navodaya Vidyalaya Scheme envisages opening of one JNV in each district of  the  country.Opening  of  new  JNVs  is  a  continuous  process  which  depends  on  the willingness of the concerned State Government to make available requisite suitable land free of cost for construction of the permanent building and making available required temporary building, free of rent, to run the Vidyalaya till the permanent building is constructed. However, actual sanction and opening of new JNV depends on availability of funds and approval by the Competent Authority.One JNV each has been sanctioned in all the districts of the country (as on 31 st May, 2014). The state of Tamil Nadu has not yet accepted the Navodaya Vidyalaya Scheme.

(e) :   NVS is providing continuous training to JNV teachers to upgrade their skills. In addition the  students  are  also  supported  with  modules  on  experiential  learning,  practice  papers, remedial  teaching  and  videos  of  classes  by  expert  teachers  based  on  observations  made during periodical inspections of Vidyalayas.
