evaluation (Social Audit) in 43,884 Government schools across the State

under the SALT project funded by world bank which covers six major

domains with 42 sub domains through the app .With this baseline

insights from the School Performance evaluation tool the stake holders

can identify the gaps and formulate strategies to develop the school

The objective of the social audit is 'Zero Tolerance Policy' to

prevent negligence regarding the safety and security of children in

schools. It emphasizes comprehensive safety, covering infrastructure,

psycho-social well-being, health, and physical safety. The document also

aims to raise awareness among various stakeholders, including children,

parents, and the community, about safety, security, and preparedness for

natural disasters. It underscores the significance of monitoring efforts to

enhance the quality of teacher-student interactions, ultimately improving

teaching practices.

Findings of the Social Audit baseline: The State's overall score stands

at 3.24 out of 4. Baseline provides a comprehensive overview of the

scores across different districts within the state, highlighting significant

variations.

Action plan: The following are the activities to address the gaps.

School Improvement Plan: A School Improvement Plan will be

developed, drawing upon the baseline highlights and the present status

of the school. A sample school improvement plan will be disseminated to

support school heads to prepare their own school improvement plan. This

will guide and structure the school's progress.

In this regard, the School Education Department is committed to

transform the state 's education system with vision 2029 by designing a

road map for school improvement action plan and future activities by

involving Mandal Educational Officers-2 ,Head Masters and parent
