Take special kids or face action: CBSE
MUMBAI: The Central Board for Secondary Education (CBSE) has taken a huge step towards offering equal opportunity to all children seeking an education, including those with “special needs”. The board has reminded its schools that admission cannot be denied on the grounds that students were differently abled.
A recent Board circular says, “It is being reiterated that any school which fails to provide attention to a child with special needs or makes a pretext of denying admission to any category of differently abled children will be liable to stringent action even to the extent of disaffiliation.”
