The Hindu
‘Merger of classes 3, 4 and 5 in high schools detrimental to students’ interests’
Opposing the proposed school restructure programme by the government as part of reforms in the education sector, leaders of the Andhra Pradesh United Teachers’ Federation (APUTF) on Thursday hit the road demanding withdrawal of the related Circular 172. The federation held a State-wide protest demanding that the government drop its plan to merge Classes 3, 4 and 5 in high schools in the name of implementing the National Education Policy (NEP)-2020. They said, contrary to the Education Minister’s assurance that the NEP would be implemented only after discussing the key issues with all the stakeholders, the officials of the Department of School Education were engaged in making arrangements for merger of Classes 3, 4 and 5 in the high schools.
