Summary:
Over 1,000 schools under the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation may adopt a national accreditation framework to ensure checks on security, quality of education and infrastructural development. Having an accredition framework would be extremely useful to evaluate ones performance and do the right things to improve it " added Durge. During the committee meeting held on Thursday, Sainath Durge, a member of the BMC's education committee, suggested that schools under the civic body should take help from the National Accredition Board for Education and Training (NABET) to audit its schools in regular intervals. Some of the things that are tested in accredition process include infrastructure, student teacher ratio, safety measures, school performance etc. The move is aimed at improving the education standards of BMC schools..
