ANNEXURE (35) Government have accepted the following recommendations of the night school committee:- Recommendations- SS CODE
ANNEXURE (35)
Government have accepted the following recommendations of
the night school committee:-
Recommendations
Sr.
No.
1.
The institution of night high school should be retained after re-organizing it
on efficient lines and special encouragement should be given for opening such
schools where a need for them arises.
2.
The day schools should be permitted to run night high schools as an extension
shift.
3.
In future, as far as possible, day school managements should be allowed to
organize night high schools as an additional part-time activity.
4.
The municipal corporations should be allowed to come in the field and to establish
night high schools.
5.
Night high schools started by the municipal corporation should be held eligible
for grant-in-aid on the same basis as the other non-government schools.
6.
Part-time schools started by the Municipal Corporation should be held eligible
for grant-in-aid on the same basis as the other non-government schools.
7.
The size of a class of a night school should be up to 40 and rule 13 of the
grant-in-aid code laying down the maximum number of pupils in different
standards should be suitably amended.
8.
The option of having 2 ½ hours or 3 hours work per day should be given to the
individual schools and that the total number of working hours for each kind of
night high schools should be prescribed.
(1)
For night high schools working for 2 ½ hours a day, 282 total working days
should be prescribed out of which 260 days should be instructional days.
(2)
For night schools working for 3 hours a day, 240 total working days should be
prescribed, out of which 220 days should be instructional days.
9.
While admitting pupils to night high schools the headmaster should satisfy
himself that they cannot attend a day high school on account of a genuine
personal difficulty of the type referred to above and before admitting them
record a certificate to the effect that he has satisfied himself after due
enquiry that the pupils cannot attend a day high school. .
10.
While effecting admissions to night high schools, a certificate of the previous
school attended by the pupil should be insited upon. If there is a lapse of
some years, a test should be given and the admission so effected that the pupil
should be able to appear for the S.S.C. examination before he or she attains
the age appropriate for appearing as a private candidate, but in no case direct
admission to the top standard of a night high school should be allowed.
11.
In framing of the time-table in a night high school, the traditional practice
of framing time-table on the lines of day high school should be given up and
the time-table should be so framed as to provide intensive teaching in periods
of longer duration in those subjects which are proposed to be taught by the
usual class-room teaching method.
12.
With regard to the teaching methods also, good deal of new experimentation will
have to be done. The emphasis in teaching should, therefore, shift from
verbalism on the part of the teacher to the form of assignments which the
teacher should briefly explain to the pupils. Pupils will then study the topic
on the lines of the assignment.
13.
The night high schools should organize extracurricular activities on Sundays or
holidays. This, no doubt, amounts to encroachment on the few holidays that the
boys employed in factories get; but considering that after all they are only
boys, possibly a few hours spent in extracurricular activities on a holiday
will make their holiday actually more enjoyable. The only precaution that will
have to be taken will be not to make presence at the extracurricular activity
on a holiday obligatory.
14
(a) the basis of the grant-in-aid to the night high schools should continue to
be the same as at present. They will continue to get grants as day high schools
get i.e., according to new formula (vide government resolution, education and
social welfare department, No. GAC. 1068-E, dated 15-4-1968);
(b)
the gee rates should also continue to be at one-half the fee rates prescribed
for the day high schools.
15.
No cut should be imposed for results above 20 percent of passes and for 20
percent and less passes, a cut should be imposed on the following items:-
Result
percentage Amount of
cut
0
to 10 10
per cent
11
to 15 71
per cent
16
to 20 5
per cent
Subject
to the remarks the percentage of cut in maintenance grant, so far as aided
night high schools in western Maharashtra are concerned, should be imposed for
the low percentage of S.S.C. examination result as follows:-
Percentage
of Result Amount of cut
0
to 10 5
per cent
11
to 15 2
½ per cent
16
to 20 1
per cent
16.
The condition of minimum daily average attendance in a class in respect of
night high schools should be relaxed to 20 pupils for deciding the eligibility
of grants payable in 1967-68 and 1968-69 (vide government resolution, education
and social welfare department, No. SSN. 1067-E, dated 22-2-1968.)
