- | Thursday | 16th July, 2020
New Delhi: After what the Delhi government has called an "exemplary result" in the performance of state-run schools in the 12th Standard CBSE examinations this year, Education Minister Manish Sisodia on Wednesday took plans to formulate and launch Delhi's very own education board forward - announcing the formation of two committees that will prepare the scheme and framework for the new Delhi State Education Board. Members of this committee include Abha Adams (Advisor Education, Step by Step School), Ameeta Wattal (Principal, Springdales School), Dr Rukmini Banerji (CEO, Pratham Education Foundation), Vinod Karate (Social Entrepreneur and CEO, The Teacher App) among others. Sisodia said the last five years had shown what the Delhi government's education model can achieve from within the existing education system. "Now the aim is to redefine the education system to prepare our students for the challenges of the 21st-century world," the Deputy Chief Minister said. Our vision for the next five years is to transform the education system of Delhi and it is our hope that these two committees would tell us the 'how'," Sisodia added.
