The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has taken some important decisions recently. The CBSE has revoked the affiliation of Neerja Modi School in Jaipur and GD Goenka School in Gurugram. The CBSE canceled the affiliation of both schools in the middle of the academic session, with less than two months remaining before the board exams. While many parents are happy with this decision, it has also created difficulties for many other parents and students.
Let's find out why the CBSE revoked the affiliation of Neerja Modi School in Jaipur and GD Goenka School in Gurugram. We will also explore the options available to the students studying in these two schools.
Reasons for Revocation of Affiliation
The CBSE revoked the affiliation of Neerja Modi School in Jaipur and GD Goenka School in Gurugram due to non-compliance with safety regulations, prioritizing the safety of the students. Let's understand the reasons for the revocation of affiliation of both schools in detail.
GD Goenka School, Gurugram: The CBSE has revoked the affiliation of GD Goenka School for one session, i.e., 2026-27. The CBSE took this action against the school for violating safety regulations. In its investigation, the CBSE found that the school was sharing its building and campus with two other institutions. There was no boundary wall between them. This means that several institutions were operating within the school campus. The CBSE considered this a compromise on the safety of the students.
Neerja Modi School, Jaipur: The CBSE revoked the affiliation of Neerja Modi School in Jaipur in connection with the suicide case of a fourth-grade student, Amayra. 9-year-old Amayra committed suicide on the school campus a few months ago. The CBSE had a committee investigate the matter. The investigation revealed that Amayra was harassed at school. Despite being aware of the situation, the school administration did not address her problems. Furthermore, effective safety measures were not implemented at the school. Considering this, the CBSE has permanently revoked the affiliation of Neerja Modi School in Jaipur.
What will happen to the students studying in these schools now?
After the action taken by the CBSE, the affiliation of both schools has been revoked. This has increased the difficulties for many students. Students are worried about their future. Let's find out what options the CBSE has given to the students of these schools.
