## ANSWER

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

(a) & (b): As per information received from Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), a few schools were not following Examination and Affiliation Bye-Laws of the Board and were  sponsoring  students  (for  Board  examination)  who  were  not  attending  regular  classes from the school. Clause 14.2.4 of the Affiliation Bye-Laws of the Board 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'.    Therefore,  registration/  List  of Candidates  (LoC)  data  of  students  of  classes  IX,  X,  XI  and  XII  of  various  schools  were analyzed by CBSE and abnormalities in the data of a few schools were found.  Hence, on 03.09.2024, surprise inspection of 27 CBSE affiliated schools had been conducted by CBSE. As  reported  by  the  inspection  Committee,  these  schools  were  involved  in  the  practice  of sponsoring dummy/non attending students. After issuing Show Cause Notices to these schools and considering their replies, action against all these schools have been taken by the Board in accordance with the provision of Affiliation Bye-Laws of the Board, which included disaffiliation of 21 schools (Annexure A) and down gradation of 06 schools (Annexure B). (c):  Various  rules  /  guidelines  have  been  incorporated  by  CBSE  in  its  Affiliation  and Examination  Bye-laws  to  ensure  that  the  students  attend  regular  classes  in  their  schools. Clause 6.5,  Clause  13.1(i)  and  Clause  13.2(i)  of  the  Examination  Bye-Laws  of  the  Board, inter  alia,  prescribe  that  the  students  attend  regular  classes  in  their  schools  to  ensure  their eligibility for Board Examination. (d) & (e): The Board has specified norms pertaining to minimum infrastructural/manpower and  other  necessary  requirement  for  its  schools  in  the  Affiliation  Bye-Laws  which  is mandatory for all the CBSE affiliated schools to follow. (f)  &  (g):  CBSE  Affiliation  Bye-Laws,  inter  alia,  prescribe  that  its  affiliated  schools  shall

devise  and  follow  a  well-organized  system  for  the  recruitment  of  staff  (teaching  &  nonteaching).
