Modalities for identification of Out of school children in the State for the year 2019-20 – Instructions
In the reference 1st cited, the Government of Andhra Pradesh has assured
Free and Compulsory Education for the children within the age group of 6-14 years
and every child in the age group 6-14 must be completed 8 years of elementary
cycle education irrespective of Gender, Caste, Region, Religion etc.,. The Govt. of
A.P., have taken all initiations in respect of free and compulsory education and
established Primary Schools for every 1KM radius, Upper Primary Schools in 3 KM
radius and High Schools in the radius 5 KMs in all habitations of State as per the
RTE Act.
However, it is noticed that very huge difference between school age children
and in school children and the remaining children are deemed to appear as out of
school children or never enrolled. It is also observed that different private agencies,
Govt. Departments and enrolment drives very often taken up by the Samagra
Shiksha and School Education Department etc., are projecting various figures on
OSC data and it is causing difficult to develop holistic approach in the absence of
sound data base of OoSC for the State. Hence it is very much required to undertake
an exhaustive “Special drive for identification” of out of school children in the State.
