## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION (SHRI JAYANT CHAUDHARY)

(a) and (b) : The  List  of  disaffiliated  and  downgraded  schools  by  Central  Board  of Secondary Education (CBSE) in Maharashtra, Delhi and Rajasthan is enclosed at Annexure-A. To support the students who are affected by recent disaffiliation, the following steps have been taken by CBSE: -

- (i) The  students  of  class  X  and  XII  of  recently  disaffiliated  schools  are  permitted  to appear from the same school for session 2024-25.
- (ii) The students who are presently in class IX and XI shall be shifted to nearby school by the Board before commencement of the next academic session.

Likewise, to support the students who are affected by recent down-gradation, the following steps have been taken by CBSE: -

- (i) The Students of Class XII of recently down-graded schools are permitted to appear in the Board Exam from the same school for the session 2024-25;
- (ii) The students who are presently in Class XI in the down-graded school shall be shifted to nearby school by the Board before commencement of the next academic session.

(c) : The Board has down-graded total 17 schools w.e.f. 01.01.2024 to till date. List of these school is enclosed at Annexure-B.

(d) : The recently disaffiliated schools can only apply online for restoration of affiliation upto Secondary Level after a lapse of one academic year (i.e. from 2026-27) after removing the deficiencies  pointed  out  with  regard  to  running  of  School  upto  Secondary  Level.    These schools  can  apply  for  upgradation  upto  Senior  Secondary  Level  at  least  only  after  02 academic years of restoration upto Secondary Level, if the same is so sought for and granted.

Further, no online application for restoration of any of these disaffiliated schools (including school of Maharashtra) has been received by CBSE.

(e) : Clause 14.2.3 of the Affiliation Bye-Laws of CBSE stipulates that ' No affiliated school shall present the candidates to the Board's examination who are enrolled in an unaffiliated School/Branch .'  Clause  14.2.4  of  the  Affiliation  Bye-Laws  of  CBSE  provides  that  ' No affiliated school shall present the candidates to the Board's examination who are on its roll but  have  not  attended  the  school  regularly  or  do  not  meet  the  requirement  of  minimum attendance for appearance in the Board's examination. '

Recently,  CBSE  has  disaffiliated  of  21  schools  and  down-graded  of  06  schools  who  were sponsoring non-attending students.
