Nagpur, Feb 13All parents want their child to study in English medium school, compared to Hindi, Marathi or Urdu medium. But in NMC only Banatwala School is English medium. Looking at the growing demand for English medium school, it was decided to open six English medium schools in six constituencies before two years, but due to Covid it could not be implemented. Now the process has been reinitiated and a proposal will be tabled in the Standing Committee meeting slated to take place on coming Wednesday.According to available information, NMC will enter into agreement with Aakansha Foundation for running six English medium schools for 20 years. The foundation will incur around 30 per cent expenses on the salaries of teachers and employees, in the first year, 35 per cent in second year, 40 per cent in the third year and 45 per cent in fourth year. Whereas NMC administration will take care of school building, basic facilities, electricity-water bill, school building construction and maintenance, students uniform, books, nutritious food, safety and cleanliness expenses. The entire school management and administration will be under NMC. It will be mandatory to take approval for the appointment of teachers and employees from the municipal commissioner in the beginning of the academic year. The school will be run by private institution, but will be called NMC schools.Normally, the government provides a grant of 50 per cent on the salary of recognised teachers of primary schools, while 100 per cent of the salary of recognised teachers and employees of subsidised secondary schools is received as grant. But NMC has to spend 100 per cent on the salary of teachers and employees of English medium schools and non-approved secondary schools.The then NMC commissioner Tukaram Mundhe was in favor of the CBSE to operate English medium schools while the education committee was in favour of state board to run English medium schools. The matter was under this deadlock, because of which this proposal could not be implemented for a year. If these schools start operating after the new academic session after Covid pandemic, then poor students will get a chance to study in English medium schools.
