Officials dispute findings of UDISE+ report; Kerala and Puducherry fare much better

CHENNAI: Only 18% of government schools in Tamil Nadu have internet facility, according to the Unified district Information System for Education Plus (UDISE+) report 2020-21.The latest UDISE+ report, which was released recently by the Union Ministry of Education, reveals that 32.03 per cent of schools (government, government-aided, private, and others) in the State have internet facility on their premises. While 75.62 per cent of private schools have internet facility, government schools, with a corresponding figure of just 18 per cent, lag behind.

The figure holds significance now as digitisation in education has become the buzzword. Amid the pandemic, online education has been promoted aggressively by the government. Even in last year’s Budget, the State government announced plans to set up smart classrooms, equip schools for online education, and train teachers to handle online classes. But with such poor internet availability in government schools, these announcements would take years to become reality.
