In a move aimed at checking absenteeism in schools, the Directorate of Elementary Education (DEE), Odisha has issued a new advisory for all government and government-aided schools. As per the new advisory, if a student remains absent from school for a week or more, the school teachers will have to go to his house and collect information.
This directive was issued following guidelines from the State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (OSCPCR). The purpose of this visit is to ascertain the real reasons for absence. The school administration will be enquired to take necessary steps to ensure the student is re-admitted to school.
The District Education Officer and Block Education Officer have been instructed to implement the advisory immediately. The move underscores government's commitment to ensure that every child has access to education and is protected from social risks.
