The amendment will widen the beneficiary net for disabled children and provide those with severe disability the option of receiving education at home.<br /> <br /> It will also give school management committees an advisory role in minority schools, both aided and unaided, and will put madarsas and vedic schools and other institutions providing primarily religious instruction outside the mandate of the right to education Act. The amendment to the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Bill, 2010, popularly called right to education bill, was pending in the House for two-and-a-half years. The original bill was passed in August 2009.<br /> <br /> Moving the amendment bill for consideration, human resource development minister Kapil Sibal said, &quot;it is a historic piece of legislation and will have a huge impact on quality education to children between Classes 1 and 8 in the 6-14 age group. The bill will change the way we look at education. You can have a legislation but it needs to be implemented,&quot; he said and called for involving key stake-holders, including children, parents, NGOs and schools and not just government alone.<br /> <br /> Sibal stressed that the amendment goes beyond the Supreme Court, which kept unaided minority school out of the purview of the Act. As per the amendment, the school management committee will not have the final authority in all minority schools, its role will be advisory.<br /> <br /> Though not in the purview of the amendment, Sibal responded to comments about the 25% quota for children from economically weaker sections. He said that most private schools would be happy for the money that the government would pay for taking these children in, as the government spend is higher than what these schools spend or charge.

Rajya Sabha passes RTE Amendment Bill |
-The Economic Times
The Rajya Sabha on Tuesday passed an amendment to the Right to Education Act. The amendment will widen the beneficiary net for disabled children and provide those with severe disability the option of receiving education at home. It will also give school management committees an advisory role in minority schools, both aided and unaided, and will put madarsas and vedic schools and other institutions providing primarily religious instruction outside the mandate of the right to education Act. The amendment to the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Bill, 2010, popularly called right to education bill, was pending in the House for two-and-a-half years. The original bill was passed in August 2009. Moving the amendment bill for consideration, human resource development minister Kapil Sibal said, "it is a historic piece of legislation and will have a huge impact on quality education to children between Classes 1 and 8 in the 6-14 age group. The bill will change the way we look at education. You can have a legislation but it needs to be implemented," he said and called for involving key stake-holders, including children, parents, NGOs and schools and not just government alone. Sibal stressed that the amendment goes beyond the Supreme Court, which kept unaided minority school out of the purview of the Act. As per the amendment, the school management committee will not have the final authority in all minority schools, its role will be advisory. Though not in the purview of the amendment, Sibal responded to comments about the 25% quota for children from economically weaker sections. He said that most private schools would be happy for the money that the government would pay for taking these children in, as the government spend is higher than what these schools spend or charge. He said that it was only 400-odd schools, which would be spending more but that the benefit of diversifying the classroom were immense. After the passage of the bill, Sibal said that he hopes that all pending education bills would be passed. He assured that he was open to addressing substantive concerns about the proposed legislations, but urged that these bills be passed as they deal with the future of children, and their empowerment. There are 13 pending education legislations in Parliament. |
