Cabinet approves setting up of 50 new Kendriya Vidyalayas in the country under Civil / Defence Sector

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs,chaired by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has approved the proposal for opening of 50 new KendriyaVidyalayas (KVs) under Civil / Defence Sector in the country keeping in view the high demand for these schools for their quality of education and excellent results.

The total project cost based on KendriyaVidyalayaSangathan (KVS) norms for the proposed 50 new KVs is Rs.1160 crore.

New KVs will be opened from classes I to V for which 650 regular posts shall be created in all 50 KendriyaVidyalayas. The school grows every year with addition of one more higher class and, when the school grows upto class XII and becomes a full fledged school with two sections in each class, there shall be a requirement of about 4000 regular posts of various categories i.e., about 2900 teaching posts and about 1100 non-teaching posts. These new KVs when fully functional will provide quality education to approximately 50,000 students in addition to the approximately 12 lakh students already studying in present KVs.

The new KVs will address the educational needs of eligible students with high quality standards and will play a role of pace-setting educational institutions in the districts concerned.

Background:

The main objective of KVS is to cater to the educational needs of children of transferable Central Government employees including Defence and Para-military personnel by providing a common programme of education. There are at present 1142 functional KendriyaVidyalayas under the KVS including three abroad at Moscow, Kathmandu and Tehran.

The KendriyaVidyalayas are considered as model schools in the country in terms of physical infrastructure, teaching resources, curriculum and academic performance. KendriyaVidyalayas as pace setting schools have consistently turned out excellent academic performance as is evident from the Board Results of Class X and XII exams conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).

‘Three Kendriya Vidyalaya proposals approved’, HRD Minister says in interaction with Press

Union HRD Minister, Sh. Prakash Javadekar announced the approval of three Kendriya Vidyala proposals, during an informal interaction with the media persons today. The Minister also received the feedback from the media regarding the performance of the ministry and education sector, appreciating the immense experience of the media professionals in covering the ministry of Human Resource Development.

The Minister briefed the press about the approval of three Kendriya Vidyalaya proposals. It was decided to open new Kendriya Vidyalaya in Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh (Railway Coach Factory) as well as in Takenpur, Madhya Pradesh (BSF Academy). It was also decided to adjust timings in the already functional Kendriya Vidyalaya in Piliphit, Uttar Pradesh to enable classes for Std XI considering the space constraints of the KV.

On NEET, the Minister clarified as follows

1. In case a candidate appeared in NEET-I and applied for NEET-II but not paid the fee, his candidature for NEET-II will not be considered as he has not submitted the fee and thus, his form has not been submitted successfully. The registration issued to any candidate is basically a unique number which is issued to all candidates who registers with the system. In the above case, result of NEET-I will be considered

2. In case, a candidate appeared in NEET-I and applied for NEET-II successfully but could not appear in NEET-II, such cases will be placed before the Oversight Committee for consideration of their NEET-I result.

3. Any other case which will come to the notice will also be placed before the Oversight Committee for taking final decisions.

New Transfer Guidelines of KVS for Teaching employees upto PGTs & Non-Teaching employees upto Assistants w. e. f. 2016

Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan has issued new transfer guidelines for KVS teaching employees and non-teaching employees

Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan

F.11029/2016/KVS (HQ)/E-II/TP

26th April, 2016

To,
All the Principals
Kendriya Vidyalayas.

Subject: – Adoption of New Transfer Guidelines of KVS for Teaching employees upto PGTs & Non-Teaching employees upto Assistants w. e. f. 2016 – Regarding.

Madam / Sir,
At the outset, I would like to convey my best wishes for the new academic session 2016-17 and at the same time wish to draw your attention towards an important issue i.e. Transfer Guidelines. Transfer Guidelines of Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan effective from 1.4.2011 were in operation with some amendments made from time to time.

With the passage of time, we felt a need to review it. In order to make transfer guidelines more transparent, employee friendly and Information Technology enabled, KVS had invited suggestions and feedback last year from all Teaching and Non-Teaching Employees, Principals, Deputy Commissioners, other officers at Regional Offices, ZIETs and all Service Associations of KVS.

1.As a result, KVS received large number of suggestions. Further, Teachers’ Transfer Policies of the states of Gujarat, Karnataka, West Bengal, Tamilnadu, Delhi, Rajasthan and Haryana were taken into consideration to carve out suitable and appropriate transfer guidelines for the KVS employees.

2. You would appreciate the fact that many meaningful suggestions received from your side and many progressive elements of teachers’ transfer policies of above mentioned states have been incorporated in KVS Transfer Guidelines 2016 to fulfil the demands & aspirations of the KVS employees. I would like to mention here some specific provisions made in new Transfer guidelines.

• Introduction of Mutual Transfer,
• Transfer against No Taker vacancy,
• Prioritization of Widow & Single Parent for getting transfer at a desired place,
• Transfer of Yoga Teachers with post at choice place,
• 25 days relaxation in delayed joining at Hard/ Very Hard stations for counting of tenure,
• Consideration of KVS employee for request transfer after Mid- Session on account of transfer of Spouse,
• Exemption from displacement transfer to those employees who are having disabled dependent children.
• More points have been given to Members of JCM at KVS (HQ) & Regional level to avoid their displacement transfers,
• Points have been awarded for seeking request transfer for those who are recipients of KVS Regional Incentive Awards.
• A chance has been given to those employees who have been redeployed on surplus ground for coming back to previous station in the event of availability of vacancy within one year at that station.
• An employee whose transfer orders are issued after 20th June by the KVS for Hard/ Very Hard/ NER stations he/she will be given relaxation of some more days for counting of tenure at Hard / Very Hard/ NER stations as on 30th June.
• As the tenure for hard stations has been restored back for three years w.e.f 2016 due to administrative exigencies but employees who had been posted earlier with two years tenure at these stations have been exempted from this change.
• With a view to make whole annual transfer process fully transparent, KVS has made a paradigm shift from old practice of manually filled Transfer Applications. Henceforth, Transfer Applications will be invited through online process and transfer orders will also be generated through computerized process on the basis of online database.
• Every employee will be able to check his/her Transfer Count and Displacement Count on the KVS website as per the Calendar of Activities for effecting annual transfer.
• Tentative vacancies will also be displayed on website of KVS (HQ) for the reference of employees.

3. I would assure that KVS is committed to take care of all service matters of its employees and to take all possible welfare measures. Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan also expects from every one of us to rise to the occasion and to walk some extra miles to secure the success of this wonderful organization.

4. Content of this letter must be brought to the notice of every staff member of the Kendriya Vidyalaya by providing them with a copy.

With best wishes

It has come to the notice of Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan that a public notice dated 29.3.2016 bearing file No. 11054/29/2016 – KVSHQ (RPS) has appeared in some social media regarding conduct of written examination on for the post of PRT & PRT (Music) for the year 2014-15 and 2015-16 on 18.4.2016. Some candidates/citizens are enquiring about this notice from KVS (HQ) over phone and email.

In this regard it is clarified that KVS vide its public notice dated 04.10.2015 bearing file No. 11054/3/2015-KVSHQ (RPS) had informed all concerned that the new date of examination for both these posts will be posted on KVS website www.kvsangathan.ni.in. All candidates were accordingly advised to keep a watch on KVS website in future in this regard.

In the light of above, KVS disowns the aforesaid public notice dated 29.3.2016 appearing in some social media as no fresh dates have been decided for conduct of cancelled examination for the posts of PRT and PRT(Music) for the year 2014-15 and 2015-16. The public notice dated 29.3.2016 appearing on behalf of KVS in some social medica is fake and misleading.

Further, KVS is not responsible for such type of false/ misleading information being circulated in social media and / or other websites.
