Gyandeep Model High School: Sector 20 school derecognised for anomalies in admission process

CHANDIGARH: For the first time after many years the UT education department has derecognised a private school due to its anomalies in the admission process. On the proposal of district education officer, director of school education has approved the withdrawal of recognition of classes XI and XII of Gyandeep Model High School in Sector 20, Chandigarh. The school had landed in trouble in March 2017 when Class XII students of the school did not get their roll numbers for appearing in board exams.

In the letter district education officer (DEO) had referred to the same committee’s report and had stated that “there is total mismanagement of the record and lots of anomalies are visible in the admission process.” It was also stated that the school authorities had not informed the parents of the students regarding the norms for board classes.
