District Level RMSA: District
The strategy for universalizing access to secondary education and improving its quality is
detailed under.
3.2.1 Access
For providing universal access to quality secondary education the state of District has
developed norms with respect to access to secondary education. The increased access will be
achieved by:
• Expansion of existing secondary schools;
• Upgradation of middle schools based on micro planning exercise with all necessary
infrastructure facilities and teachers. Ashram schools will be given preference while
upgrading upper primary schools;
• Opening of new secondary schools in under-served areas based on the school mapping
exercise. Buildings of all these new schools will have mandatory water harvesting system
and will be differently abled friendly;
• Rain water harvesting systems will be installed in existing school buildings;
• Existing school buildings will also be made differently abled friendly; and
• Some of the new schools will be set up in Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode.
3.2.2 Quality
The quality of education at secondary level will be improved by:
• Providing required infrastructure like, black board, furniture, library, science &
mathematics laboratory, computer lab, and toilet blocks;
• Appointment of additional teachers and provision of in-service training for teachers;
• Bridge courses for enhancing learning ability for students passing out of class VIII;
• Reviewing of existing curriculum to meet the norms of National Curriculum
Framework (NCF), 2005;
• Residential accommodation for teachers in rural and difficult hilly areas where
preference will be given to the female teachers.
3.2.3 Equity
The equity in the secondary education will be achieved by:
• Providing free lodging/ boarding facilities for students belonging to SC,ST,OBC and
minority communities;
• Providing hostels/ residential schools, cash incentive, uniforms, books, separate toilets
for girls.
• Providing scholarships to meritorious/ needy students at secondary level;
• Inclusive education will be the hallmark of all the activities. Efforts will be made to
provide all necessary facilities for the differently abled children in all the schools; and
• Expansion of Open and Distance Learning needs to be undertaken, especially for
those who cannot pursue full time secondary education, and for supplementation /
enrichment of face-to-face instruction. This system will also play a crucial role for
education of out of school children.
4: Education of 4) Quality -
good quality · About 16000 teachers will be recruited to fill the shortage in the existing
for all students schools in 2009; and
. About 25,000 additional teachers for upgraded middle schools by 2012;

100% by 2012;
· Percentage of teachers receiving in-service training will be improved against
annual targets by 2012;
· DIETs and Colleges of Education will be strengthened to support secondary
school teachers’ professional development through the model schools/resource
centres.
iii) Text Books -
· Availability of textbooks for all the enrolled children of secondary classes will
be ensured.
iv) Teaching Learning Materials -
· Availability of teaching learning materials will be improved;
· NCF 2005 will be implemented.

ANNEXURE III
Curriculum Issues and Implementation
1 Introduction
Future citizens of India should be physically strong and sound, mentally/emotionally matured
and intelligent, and enriched to be creative, innovative and exploring. Hence Universalisation
calls for a paradigm shift on four guiding principles that involve re-conceptualization of
access itself, socio-cultural ambience of the classroom, notion of knowledge, values and
skills and the relationship between what is learnt inside the school and what is available
outside. To support education at four planes, four pillars of learning, namely, learning to
know, learning to do, learning to live together and learning to be. Therefore meaningful
activities are to be included in the plan in order to achieve the goals and objectives of the
Universalisation of Secondary Education. The following are the various strategies and
activities for “RMSA”.
2 New Approaches
The classroom practices and everyday activities in the Secondary level need to be
modernized with innovative approaches. Hence the following new approaches suggested by
the CABE Committee will be implemented in the state.
A set of work-related generic competencies have to be pursued and the evaluation parameters
also have to be redesigned as well. Generic competencies will include, among other things,
critical thinking, and transfer of work ethic or collaborative functioning and entrepreneurship-
cum-social accountability. This will provide a firm foundation for building up a programme
of Vocational Education instead of Vocational Education at the Secondary/Higher Secondary
Stages.
Vocational Education and Training (VET) have to be conceived as major national programme
in the mission mode and the structurally and administratively placed outside the school
system. VET in this new perspective will be built upon the bedrock of 10-12 years of work-
centered education in the school system.
Hence in the Secondary Level, various vocational skills will be included in the classroom
activities during arts and crafts classes. These skills will be designed in such a manner that
they will help children in pursuing future vocational/professional courses.
Project-based learning allows the teacher to incorporate numerous teaching and learning
strategies into project planning and implementation. Projects assist students in succeeding
within the classroom and will make learning a part of living, not just a preparation for it.
Learners apply multiple intelligences in completing a project they can be proud of. Our
society values individuals who can solve problems creatively, using multiple strengths.
Project based learning leads to the following benefits:
• Offers multiple ways for students to participate and to demonstrate their knowledge.
• Accommodate different kinds of intelligence (e.g., kinesthetic, figural)
• Can be matched to the learning styles of students such as learning alone by reading
and reviewing, or learning in a group by reading and discussing.
• Shifts students away from doing only what they typically do. For example, projects
provide the means to give followers the experience of being task leaders.
• Prompts students to collaborate while at the same time supporting self directed
learning.
• Offers a learning experience that draws on the thinking and shared efforts of several
individuals.
• Helps students develop a variety of social skills relating to group work and
negotiation.
• Promotes the internalization concepts, values, and modes of thought, especially those
related to co-operation and conflict resolution.
• Establishes a supportive and non-competitive climate for students.
• Provides a means for transferring, in whole or in part, the responsibility for learning
from teachers to students.
• Allows students to try out new skills and model complex behavior in a non-
threatening fashion.
• Calls upon students to explain or defend their position to other in their project groups,
so that their learning is more apt to be “owned”, that is, personalized and valued.
• Serves as a medium to involve students who don’t usually participate.
• Encourages the mastery of technological tools. Projects provide an ideal context for
learning to use computer technology and graphic arts tools, thus extending students
capabilities and preparing them for the world beyond school.
Analyses and interpretation of the evidences collected through both the formative and
summative evaluation may be viewed in three different ways; first by assessing the student’s
progress with reference to their own selves (self-referenced), secondly, with reference to the
criteria set bye their teacher (criterion-referenced), and thirdly, with reference to the progress
made by their peer groups (norm-referenced).
Evaluation must facilitate all-round development of students. It will, therefore, desirable to
have school-based system of students’ evaluation, both formative and summative, from
Classes I-XII. However, at the primary level evaluation will be formative of nature and only
at the end of Classes X and XII will the final examinations be conducted by the boards as far
as the scholastic areas are concerned. The school-based evaluation, which will be in the form
of continuous and comprehensive evaluation, will incorporate not only the scholastic areas
but also the co-scholastic areas of students’ growth. In Classes X and XII, however, the
performance of students in co-scholastic areas will be assessed by the school and conveyed to
the board for inclusion in the statement of marks or grades awarded in the scholastic areas of
study.
2.7 Secondary Stage
Evaluation at the secondary stage will be school and Board-based using the continuous and
comprehensive evaluation mode with special emphasis on diagnosis and remediation aiming
at ensuring the mastery level. Students’ achievement in different subject areas will continue
to be assessed periodically by employing criterion-referenced tests. Cumulative report cards
for individual students will be maintained indicating their performance assessed through
various tests, etc. The portfolios of individual students will also contain their self-appraisal
and peer evaluation besides their cumulative report cards.
Apart from the evaluation of the various subjects taught in the classroom, children will be
assessed on their participation and performance in sports and games, arts and crafts, extra-
curricular and co-curricular, clubs and association activities. Each activity may fetch a credit,
so that it will add to the overall assessment of the child.
It is highly relevant in this context that the Government of District has banned the Corporal
Punishment in schools in the state. Hence there is a question in the minds of the teachers what
measure to be adopted to maintain discipline in the school.
Hence Active Learning Method has proved to be the most efficient method in making in
children learns well in the Elementary Level, it is planned to extend the same Method to the
Secondary Level also.
5 Skills Development
It is felt that students at the secondary level need to be trained in the development of
interpersonal and human relations skills (soft skills) along with problem solving, decision
making, judgment and other critical thinking competencies (conceptual skills). There are
Hard Skills as well as Soft and Conceptual skills. The acquisition of hard skills is only one
part of the leadership development process. The development of soft skills is the second part
and the acquisition of conceptual skills is the third part of the leadership development
process. The following are some of the various components to be developed under skills
development – Soft Skills, Hard Skills, Conceptual Skills, Outdoor Leadership Training,
Curriculum Development, Judgment, Decision Making, and Problem Solving.
In order to compare definitions between hard, soft and conceptual skills, each of these skill
areas will be broken down into components to help organize these three types of sills. The
hard skills may be broken into five components: physiological, environmental, safety,
technical and administrative.
Safety; The safety component includes the skills necessary to render a safe activity, free from
injury and secure from danger or loss. Some examples may include practicing the
fundamentals of accident prevention and group security, taking necessary precaution,
implementing risk management techniques and developing a critical eye for safety.
Technical; Technical hard skills are the most common cornerstones for outdoor leadership
training. This component in-corporate the competencies required to teach the group
knowledge, skills and attitudes related to the activity, environment and safety.
Administration; The administrative component of hard skills incorporates the “behind the
scenes” actions in managing, directing, operating, supervising and evaluating an outdoor
program. This component refers to the ability to program plan, to evaluate, understand legal
liability and being competent to organize and conduct functional meetings. The
administrative component may also include the capability of setting programme goals and
developing objectives.
Social; The social component of soft skills incorporates the group interaction and welfare of
the outdoor program participants. The special component may include the understanding of
group dynamics, the ability to resolve group conflict, develop and provide a supportive
climate (reassurance and encouragement), being sensitive to the needs of others and
establishing effective group relations.
Psychological; The psychological component combines the skills necessary in relating to the
participant’s presence of mind and behavior. Some examples of the psychological component
include building a climate of trust within a group, understanding what motivation is, and how
to stimulate it. Other examples may include promoting values, understanding attitudes of
others, team building, developing ethics and responding to a person’s risks in a trustworthy
manner.
Cognitive instinct, logical deduction, foresight, perception and assessment, Judgment is the
ability to understand, compare and decide between alternative forces. Some examples of the
judgment component may include distinguishing between perceived risk and actual risk,
recognizing potential problems in such areas as natural hazards, environmental impact, or
group problems.
Creativity; The outer limit of conceptual skill development includes the creativity
component. Creative abilities are like the oil well of our mind. We know there is a lot down
inside our brain but getting it to the surface and transforming it into something useful is the
problem. To exercise creativity within outdoor leadership incorporates generating new ideas
such as original teaching methods/techniques or inventing instructional teaching aids. Rigid,
inflexible thinking is a great killer or creative ability.
6 Computer Literacy
The national system of education in India employs a current framework with a common core
and other flexible components. It intends provide access and quality of education to all. The
administrative financial control of the system rest jointly, with the union government and the
state governments. In 1984, a program of computer literacy started on an experimental basis
in government schools. The first computer related policy, emphasizing computer literacy, was
established as part of the National Policy on Education in 1986 and modified in 1992.
Realizing all of India’s intended policy goals regarding the use of computers in education will
require facing several major obstacles. This paper makes suggestions for overcoming some of
them.
In order to facilitate this activity, necessary e-learning equipments will be installed in the
High and Higher Secondary Schools. A separate platform will be created to access these
schools through a separate Band Width for School Education. A separate classroom will be
equipped with the e-learning equipments, computer, LCD Projector and sound equipments.
Expertise will be outsourced to prepare and telecast the necessary lesions. These
arrangements will motivate the children to learn with interest and interaction with the
panelists and the children of other schools.
7 School Discipline
As far as school education is concerned, students must be trained in good discipline.
Secondary Education is a stage in which students need proper guidance of their behavior. It is
rightly said that Education is the all round development of personality. Every school have a
well defined code of conduct. The school staff council should have a policy on school
discipline and also have code of conduct for the school.
A school discipline policy should cover:
• Strategies to promote good discipline and effective learning within the school.
• Strategies for dealing with unacceptable behavior. The rights and responsibilities for
students and teachers in this regard include:
• Expected standard or behavior in the classroom playground and while traveling to and
from school.
• Safety in and around the school and at all school activities.
• Obedience to requests from staff and others in positions of authority.
• Adherence to the schools homework policy.
• Adherence to the standards to dress determined by the school community.
• Prohibition of illegal drugs, alcohol, tobacco and weapons.
• Positive and respectful relationship between all members of the school community.
9 Schooling Facility
There is a lot of disparity in schooling facilities in various region of the State. There are
disparities among the private schools, among private and government schools in the same
place, between schools in central sector also. For providing universal and free access to
quality secondary education, it is imperative that specially designed norms are to be
developed.
13.2 The School Management and Development Committee will be assisted by two sub
committees, School Building Committee and Academic Committee, headed by the Principal
and Vice Principal respectively.
Management Structure
Note-
• Any saving in any of the afore-said subhead may be reappropriable to
another.
• The construction activity should involve element of community
contribution where ever possible.
