Government schools across the national capital would be conducting remedial classes for students of class IX and XII during the upcoming summer break to bridge the gap in learning levels.
"The schools will remain closed for summer vacations from May 10 to June 30, 2016. However, to bridge the gap in learning levels, Directorate of Education (DoE) would be organising remedial classes during for Classes IX and XII during the break," an official notification said.
The classes which will be organised for 3 weeks starting from May 11-May 31 will run from 7.30 AM to 10.30 AM every day. One hour will be devoted to one subject. The head of the schools will be free to choose the subjects to be taught as per the needs of the students.
While the organisation of remedial classes is on voluntary basis for heads of schools who opt for it, the time table for classes has to be submitted in advance to the deputy director of the zone.
The Directorate has asked all students to come in proper school uniform for these classes. Only regular teachers of the DoE will be deputed for teaching. However, in case regular teachers are not available for a specific subject, guest teachers may be deputed with the prior approval of both the planning branch and the DDE (District) concerned.
