Private schools in Pohri are operating against the rules. Classes up to 10th standard are being run with recognition of 8th standard. Teachers of government schools are operating private schools.

Naiduniya representative, Shivpuri. An example of how non-government schools are being run in violation of recognition rules in the district has come to light during the inspection of the education department officials who came into action after the instructions of the SDM in Pohri. When Pohri BEO Awadhesh Singh Tomar and his team inspected the non-government schools of Pohri in the last few days, the situation was such that classes up to tenth standard were being run in four to five rooms.

The recognition was up to the eighth standard, but children of ninth and tenth standard were also found studying there. Household items and spades and pickaxes were kept in the classrooms and bicycles in the toilets. Most of the staff was also found untrained, contrary to the recognition norms, and did not even have degrees like D.Ed or B.Ed.

The most surprising thing is that the investigation team has also come across the fact that two schools are indirectly being run by teachers posted in government schools. The team has also highlighted this fact in the report. No action has been taken at the district level so far against these schools and their operators who are being run against the rules on such a large scale.

When asked, they told that they are directly prepared for 10th class.

The headmistress told the team that students of class 9th and 10th are taught by getting attached to other schools and forms are filled from other schools.
