## ANSWER

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

(a): Samagra Shiksha - The Department of School Education and Literacy is implementing an integrated  centrally  sponsored  scheme  for  School  education-  Samagra  Shiksha.  The  scheme treats school education holistically, without segmentation from pre-primary to class XII and is in  accordance  with  Sustainable  Development  Goal  for  Education  (SDG-4).  The  scheme provides support for the implementation of the RTE Act.

The  Scheme  is  aligned  with  the  recommendations  of  the  National  Education  Policy (NEP)  2020  and  aims  to  ensure  that  all  children  have  access  to  quality  education  with  an equitable  and  inclusive  classroom  environment  which  should  take  care  of  their  diverse background, multilingual needs, different academic abilities and make them active participants in the learning process.

Under Samagra Shiksha, financial assistance is provided to States and UTs for providing various facilities to the children for implementing the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act, 2009 as also for implementation of various provisions of Samagra Shiksha Scheme which include  free  uniform  to  eligible  children  at  elementary  level,  free  textbooks  at elementary  level,  development  of  primers/textbooks  for  tribal  language,  teaching  learning materials.

Also,  under  the  Scheme  financial  assistance  is  provided  to  the  States  and  UTs  for Universalization of School Education including opening/strengthening of new schools upto senior secondary level, construction of school buildings & additional classrooms, development/strengthening  of  school  infrastructure  in  northern  border  areas  under  Vibrant Village Programme, reimbursement under RTE Act, various qualitative components, strengthening  of  teacher  education  and  strengthening  of  DIETs/BRCs/CRCs,  provision  of  ICT and digital interventions.

Samagra  Shiksha  Scheme  supports  creation  of  infrastructure  and  basic  facilities  for students  in  Government  Schools.  In  this  regard,  Annual  Work  Plan  and  Budget  (AWP&B)  is prepared by the States and UTs based on their requirements and priorities and guidelines issued by the Ministry of Education at the beginning of every year. These plans are then appraised/approved by PAB in consultation with the States and UTs as per the programmatic and financial norms of the Scheme and availability of budgetary resources.

PM POSHAN -  The Pradhan Mantri Poshan Shakti Nirman (PM POSHAN) Scheme is one of the foremost rights based Centrally Sponsored Schemes. Under the Scheme, one hot cooked meal is served to students studying in Bal Vatika and Classes l-VIII in Government and Government aided  Schools  on  all  school  working  days.  The  PM  POSHAN  Scheme  aims  to  improve  the nutritional status of children, to encourage poor children belonging to disadvantaged sections to attend  school  more  regularly  and  help  them  concentrate  on  classroom  activities  and  also  to provide  nutritional  support  to  children  of  elementary  stage  in  drought  affected  areas  during summer vacation and during disaster times.

PM SHRI -  PM  SHRI schools are set up by strengthening the existing schools from amongst schools managed by Central government/State/UT Government/local bodies. These schools are to showcase all the initiatives of National Education Policy 2020 and emerge as exemplar schools over a period of time, and also offer leadership to other schools in the neighbourhood. PM SHRI scheme  has  a  provision  to  equip  PM  SHRI  schools  with  science  labs,  ICT-enabled  smart classrooms,  library,  furniture  and  playground.  Further,  digital  learning  tools  like  smart  boards supports  modern,  technology-driven  education.  Efforts  like  the  introduction  of  LED  lighting, composting facilities, and medicinal gardens create eco-friendly "green schools."

The PM SHRI scheme aims to enhance educational quality, infrastructure, and student outcomes in PM SHRI schools. Regular teacher capacity-building programs, including training of Principals,  teachers,  and  special  educators,  are  to  be  conducted  to  enhance  pedagogical  skills. Competency-based  assessments  and  the  introduction  of  holistic  report  cards  ensure  a  wellrounded evaluation of students. To enhance infrastructure, PM SHRI Scheme has a provision to equip PM SHRI Schools with science labs, ICT-enabled smart classrooms, library, furniture and playground. Further, Atal Tinkering Labs, and digital learning tools like smart boards supports modern, technology-driven education. Efforts like the introduction of LED lighting, composting facilities, and medicinal gardens create eco-friendly 'green schools'.
