SIDLAGHATTA: That the girl child is stereotyped is nothing new. But this school in Sidlaghatta, 60 km from Kolar, took it to another level with its girl students.

The school does not have a group D employee to do the regular cleaning. So the girls in the school clean the toilets, among other things, after their classes. Ironically, the Higher Primary School at Ammaganahalli won the 'Best School in the Taluk' prize!

The co-ed school has about 70 students studying upto Class 7. Before the Janaspandana programme held last week on the school campus, the girls were told to divide work among themselves and clean up the campus. From cleaning the toilets to readying it for the dignitaries to sweeping the campus, the girls did just about everything.

Surprisingly, the school authorities have no qualms about girls engaging themselves in such an act. Block Educational Officer N Srikanta told Sunday Times of India that the school management had made it mandatory for students to clean up the toilet. What is shocking is that the direction is only for girl students!

Sidlaghatta legislator V Muniyappa said the matter was brought to his notice on the day of the meeting and he has directed the authorities not to engage the students for such jobs. He also said he would take up the matter of posting a Group D employee for the school.
