Education Code for Kendriya Vidyalayas

Abstract

The Scheme for the establishment of Central Schools was approved by the Government of India in 1962 and its implementation was started by the Ministry of Education in 1963, when 20 of the Regimental Schools, run by the Ministry of Defence, were taken over and converted into Central Schools. For the smooth administration of these Central Schools, it became necessary to provide some Rules, Regulations, Instructions etc. Therefore, it was decided that, to begin with, as a guide, provisions of the Delhi Education Code be followed in Central Schools (Kendriya Vidyalayas) and accordingly orders, instructions, and directions to Kendriya Vidyalayas had been issued from time to time on various matters connected with the administration of Kendriya Vidyalayas based largely on the provisions of the Delhi Education Code.
