## ANSWER

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

(a) to (d): The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009, mandates the appropriate Government to provide free and compulsory elementary education to every child of  the  age  6  to  14  years  in  a  neighbourhood  school.  Section  12(1)(c)  of  RTE  Act,  2009 provides for admission of children belonging to weaker sections and disadvantaged groups in the  neighbourhood schools in Class I (or earlier) to the extent of at  least 25 percent of the strength of that class.

Section 11 of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act, 2009 provides that in order to prepare children above the age of three years for elementary education  and  to  provide  early  childhood  care  and  education  for  all  children  until  they complete the age of six years, the appropriate Government may make necessary arrangement for providing free pre-school education for such children.

For implementation of Section 12(1)(c) of the RTE Act, the respective State and UT Government which is the appropriate government under the RTE Act, are required to notify the disadvantaged groups and weaker sections, notify per child cost and start admissions in private  un-aided  schools  as  per  the  procedure  laid  down  by  the  concerned  State  and  UT Government.

The Central Government has been supporting States and UTs for implementation of various  provisions  of  the  Act  including  expenditure  incurred  towards  reimbursement  to private schools for admissions of children under Section 12(1)(c) from 2014-15. The support is provided on the basis of per-child cost notified by the concerned State and UT for children in class 1 and above.

The Department of School Education & Literacy has launched an Integrated Scheme for  School  Education-Samagra  Shiksha  by  subsuming  the  erstwhile  Centrally  Sponsored Schemes of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA), Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA) and Teacher Education (TE) from 2018-19.  It envisages the 'school' as a continuum from pre-school to Senior Secondary level for providing quality education and conducive learning environment.

Further, as per Section 7(1) of the RTE Act, 2009, The Central Government and the State Government shall have concurrent responsibility for providing funds for carrying out the provisions of this Act.

(e): The list of schools implementing and admitting students under RTE in Karur district of Tamil Nadu, as provided by the Government of Tamil Nadu, is at Annexure.
